Thermodynamics

a thermodynamic state of systems with bounded energy levels in which higher levels are more populated than lower ones, giving a negative temperature.

In thermodynamics, negative absolute temperature refers to a thermodynamic state of systems with bounded energy levels in which higher levels are more populated than lower ones, giving a negative temperature. This meaning comes from Ramsey (1956) in Physical Review.[1]
