What Does PK Stand For?

PK stands for Picokelvin

PK, or Picokelvin, is a unit of temperature measurement in the International System of Units (SI). It represents one trillionth (10^-12) of a Kelvin, the base unit of temperature. The picokelvin scale is used in scientific research, particularly in fields such as cryogenics and condensed matter physics, where extremely low temperatures are studied. Its precise measurement enables scientists to explore quantum phenomena and the properties of materials at near absolute zero conditions.
