A Physics Question

[Lukeje]

I don't see why the electrons should stop moving when the atom hits 0K.
Temperature is a measure of movement between atoms, after all, the electrons do not, to my knowledge, have anything to do with it.

But that would imply a single atom has no temperature - is already at 0K.

The thermodynamic temperature of a single atom isn't defined. It's a bulk property.

Remeber that atoms near 0k dont behave like they would normally i think the term is boes/einstein condensate
