Feb 18, 2020 at 12:01 | comment | added | looksquirrel101 | Not really. These are concepts that I am aware of. I'm looking for something more quantitative. Perhaps you could elaborate on the temperature of a system containing one particle and how it would be the same for two different inertial observers. | |

Feb 17, 2020 at 1:52 | comment | added | Licho | Temperature inherits this property from entropy, and entropy is the measure of the number of possible microstates. It is a feature of system. That correspond well with the main reason we even talk about temperature - to compare systems in different states. Unless the particle has any internal structure and we wish to consider it a system, there is no meaning to the notion of entropy of a particle. | |
Feb 17, 2020 at 1:38 | comment | added | looksquirrel101 | So according to your last point #1, you are stating that it is not valid to assign individual particles a temperature. Correct? | |
