Planck temperature

   

The Planck temperature, named after German physicist Max Planck, is the natural unit of temperature, denoted by TP.

TP = (c5 <math>\hbar<math>/ G)1/2 / k1.4 × 1032 kelvin

where:

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

<math>\hbar<math> is Dirac's constant

G is the gravitational constant

k is the Boltzmann constant
