Description

Rømer (°Rø): The Danish Astronomer's Temperature Scale

The Rømer scale, denoted as °Rø, was developed by Danish astronomer Ole Christensen Rømer in the early 18th century. It sets the freezing point of water at 7.5°Rø and the boiling point at 60°Rø. The Rømer scale played a crucial role in the development of later temperature scales, including the Fahrenheit scale, and is an important milestone in the history of temperature measurement.

Newton (°N): Isaac Newton's Temperature Scale

The Newton scale, represented as °N, was proposed by Sir Isaac Newton in the early 18th century. It is a linear temperature scale based on the freezing and boiling points of water, divided into 33 degrees. Although not widely adopted, the Newton scale is notable for its historical significance in the evolution of temperature measurement and its role in early scientific experimentation.
