Newton (°N)
Definition
Newton (°N) is a temperature scale where 0°N equals the freezing point of water and 33°N equals the boiling point of water.
History
The Newton scale was devised around 1700 by Sir Isaac Newton. It was one of the earliest attempts to create a standardized temperature scale and predates both Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Current use
The Newton temperature scale is not used in any modern practical application. It is studied in the history of science and thermometry as an early example of temperature standardization.
Réaumur (°Ré)
Definition
Réaumur (°Ré) is a temperature scale where 0°Ré equals the freezing point of water and 80°Ré equals the boiling point of water.
History
The Réaumur scale was proposed in 1730 by René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur, a French scientist. It was widely used across Europe, particularly in France, Germany, and Russia, until the late 19th century.
Current use
The Réaumur scale is nearly obsolete but still occasionally referenced in European cheese-making and some Italian candy-making traditions. It also appears in historical scientific texts.
