327-513: A negative quantity. A system with a truly negative temperature is not colder than absolute zero. Rather, a system with a negative temperature is hotter than any system with a positive temperature, in the sense that if a negative-temperature system and a positive-temperature system come in contact, heat flows from the negative to the positive-temperature system. Most familiar systems cannot achieve negative temperatures because adding energy always increases their entropy . However, some systems have
436-427: A War of the gods without the reincarnation of Athena. After the arrival of Athena Saori in the 18th century, Sasha fell into a deep sleep due to the great space time distortion caused by Saori's travel back in time; and she has since been nicknamed " The Sleeping Princess". She is marked for assassination by Pandora who sends Hades' Specters to fulfill that objective, among them the powerful Papillon Giuletta. Sasha's life

872-536: A maximum amount of energy that they can hold, and as they approach that maximum energy their entropy actually begins to decrease. Because temperature is defined by the relationship between energy and entropy, such a system's temperature becomes negative, even though energy is being added. As a result, the Boltzmann factor for states of systems at negative temperature increases rather than decreases with increasing state energy. Therefore, no complete system, i.e. including
981-415: A more tender side of his character emerges on occasions, such as when he expresses his gratitude to Andromeda Shun for having saved his life and his undying devotion to his mentor Aquarius Camus. He first appears in the series as he receives an order from Sanctuary to eliminate his fellow Bronze Saints, but he quickly abandons this mission when he discovers the truth about Saori Kido's identity and joins her in
1090-444: A much lesser role, but several ones with key roles can also be found, such as Rei Kojinyama ( Sukeban Arashi ), Kiku Takane ( Ring ni Kakero ) and Saori Kido ( Saint Seiya ). Kurumada has stated in interviews that he obtains some creative influence from yesterday's authors considered masters of the manga medium today, such as Hiroshi Motomiya , Sanpei Shirato and Mitsuteru Yokoyama . He specially considers that Motomiya's works had

A practicer of the martial arts in his younger days, the influence this has exerted on his various works is worthy of mention. Also, in the same manner as many manga artists today, Kurumada employs the revered Osamu Tezuka's Star System manga technique, which is essentially resorting to the use of a stable cast of characters in his various works (characters keep
1417-559: A professional manga artist, and that same year two of his older and best known works experienced a resurfacing. The original Ring ni Kakero was adapted to anime, 27 years after its manga debut, and as mentioned before, the Saint Seiya anime adaptation was resumed in 2003 and an attempt to start the Zeus Chapter was made with the release of the Saint Seiya Tenkai-Hen Josō ~Overture~ movie in 2004, which

The trio is then beset by Griffon Vermeer and Suikyō, who reveals himself as
1744-466: Is a popular character, ranking second in the main character polls of the Bronze Saints. In the Next Dimension official sequel of the manga of Saint Seiya, Hyoga goes back in time with Shiryu, to the time of the previous Holy War against Hades in the eighteenth century, in order to help Saori / Athena save Seiya's life, who is cursed by the sword of the god of the underworld. Hyoga is proclaimed as

The Fermi temperature is defined as this maximum energy divided by the Boltzmann constant, and is on the order of 80,000 K for typical electron densities found in metals. For temperatures significantly below the Fermi temperature, the electrons behave in almost the same way as at absolute zero. This explains the failure of the classical equipartition theorem for metals that eluded classical physicists in
2071-707: Is collected in 28 volumes to date, and has been resumed by Kurumada with Saint Seiya Next Dimension , the continuation to his original manga, ending the hiatus the work remained in since 1991, and to date adds thirteen more volumes to the original Saint Seiya manga, for a total or 41 volumes. The third longest is B't X , collected in 16. As stated before, Anime adaptations have been made for Saint Seiya , Fūma no Kojirō , B't X , and Ring ni Kakero , all closely follow his source manga works.

2180-698: Is evident when comparing older works to more recent ones. His coloring style is almost exclusively realistic, unlike the vast majority of manga artists, who often resort to the use of non-natural colors for the hair or eyes of their characters, although with the publication of Saint Seiya Next Dimension volumes totally in color, the addition of new characters with non-natural hair colors occurs often. Certain graphics elements characteristic of his style can be found all over his works, mostly during fight sequences, having become widely known. Fans have created terms to refer to them such as Kurumada-ochi ( 車田落ち , Kurumada-ochi ) , meaning "Kurumada Fall", which designates
2289-417: Is in its ground state , the point of lowest internal energy . The laws of thermodynamics indicate that absolute zero cannot be reached using only thermodynamic means, because the temperature of the substance being cooled approaches the temperature of the cooling agent asymptotically . Even a system at absolute zero, if it could somehow be achieved, would still possess quantum mechanical zero-point energy,

2943-435: Is that the entropy of a perfect crystal approaches a constant value. An adiabat is a state with constant entropy, typically represented on a graph as a curve in a manner similar to isotherms and isobars. The Nernst postulate identifies the isotherm T = 0 as coincident with the adiabat S = 0, although other isotherms and adiabats are distinct. As no two adiabats intersect, no other adiabat can intersect
3052-455: Is the entropy . In such a circumstance, pure substances can (ideally) form perfect crystals with no structural imperfections as T → 0. Max Planck 's strong form of the third law of thermodynamics states the entropy of a perfect crystal vanishes at absolute zero. The original Nernst heat theorem makes the weaker and less controversial claim that the entropy change for any isothermal process approaches zero as T → 0: The implication
3161-708: Is the Bronze Saint of the Phoenix constellation and Shun's older brother. He trained at the hellish Death Queen Island under Guilty, which turned him into a loner, cold and harsh. Ikki first appears as an antagonist, as the leader of the Black Saints who is set on taking the Sagittarius Gold Cloth for himself and destroying the other Bronze Saints for revenge against the Graude Foundation. He later overcomes his hate and becomes an ally to Athena and
3270-661: Is the Bronze Saint protected by the constellation of Draco the Dragon , considered the calmest and most collected of the protagonists. As one of Mitsumada Kido's sons, he was sent at an early age to the Five Old Peaks of Rozan to train under the Libra Gold Saint and acquire the Dragon Cloth. This Cloth is known for possessing the strongest fist and shield. After he returns to Japan, Shiryu becomes involved in

This close approximation to the modern value of −273.15 °C for the zero of the air thermometer was further improved upon in 1779 by Johann Heinrich Lambert , who observed that −270 °C (−454.00 °F; 3.15 K) might be regarded as absolute cold. Values of this order for the absolute zero were not, however, universally accepted about this period. Pierre-Simon Laplace and Antoine Lavoisier , in their 1780 treatise on heat, arrived at values ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 below

6649-879: The early 20th century. With a better theoretical understanding of absolute zero, scientists were eager to reach this temperature in the lab. By 1845, Michael Faraday had managed to liquefy most gases then known to exist, and reached a new record for lowest temperatures by reaching −130 °C (−202 °F; 143 K). Faraday believed that certain gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen , were permanent gases and could not be liquefied. Decades later, in 1873 Dutch theoretical scientist Johannes Diderik van der Waals demonstrated that these gases could be liquefied, but only under conditions of very high pressure and very low temperatures. In 1877, Louis Paul Cailletet in France and Raoul Pictet in Switzerland succeeded in producing

Experimentally, it is found that all spontaneous processes (including chemical reactions ) result in a decrease in G as they proceed toward equilibrium . If Δ S and/or T are small, the condition Δ G < 0 may imply that Δ H < 0, which would indicate an exothermic reaction. However, this

One model that estimates the properties of an electron gas at absolute zero in metals is the Fermi gas . The electrons, being fermions , must be in different quantum states, which leads the electrons to get very high typical velocities , even at absolute zero. The maximum energy that electrons can have at absolute zero

In 1898, after 20 years of effort, Dewar
7739-605: The first gaseous condensate was produced by Eric Cornell and Carl Wieman at the University of Colorado at Boulder NIST - JILA lab, using a gas of rubidium atoms cooled to 170 nanokelvin ( 1.7 × 10 K ). In 2003, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) achieved a temperature of 450 ± 80 picokelvin ( 4.5 × 10 K ) in a BEC of sodium atoms. The associated black-body (peak emittance) wavelength of 6.4 megameters
7848-488: The first time they had created a quantum gas made up of potassium atoms with a negative temperature in motional degrees of freedom. One of the first to discuss the possibility of an absolute minimal temperature was Robert Boyle . His 1665 New Experiments and Observations touching Cold , articulated the dispute known as the primum frigidum . The concept was well known among naturalists of the time. Some contended an absolute minimum temperature occurred within earth (as one of
7957-403: The four classical elements ), others within water, others air, and some more recently within nitre . But all of them seemed to agree that, "There is some body or other that is of its own nature supremely cold and by participation of which all other bodies obtain that quality." The question of whether there is a limit to the degree of coldness possible, and, if so, where the zero must be placed,
8066-588: The freezing point of water, and thought that in any case it must be at least 600 below. John Dalton in his Chemical Philosophy gave ten calculations of this value, and finally adopted −3,000 °C as the natural zero of temperature. From 1787 to 1802, it was determined by Jacques Charles (unpublished), John Dalton , and Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac that, at constant pressure, ideal gases expanded or contracted their volume linearly ( Charles's law ) by about 1/273 parts per degree Celsius of temperature's change up or down, between 0° and 100° C. This suggested that
8175-645: The future Gold Saint of Aquarius successor to Camus, from the Gold Saint of the eighteenth century Aquarius Mystoria Andromeda Shun ( アンドロメダ星座 ( アンドロメダ ) の瞬 , Andoromeda no Shun ) is the Bronze Saint of Andromeda and Phoenix Ikki's younger brother, although he shares the same father as the rest of the main Bronze Saints. He trained at Andromeda Island under the Silver Saint Cepheus Daidalos and returned to Japan after earning his Cloth, hoping to be reunited with Ikki. He helps Athena reclaim Sanctuary and later becomes involved in
8284-421: The god of the underworld. Shiryu is proclaimed as the future Gold Saint of Libra successor to Dohko, from the Gold Saint of the eighteenth century Libra Dohko(Young) Cygnus Hyoga ( 白鳥星座 ( キグナス ) の氷河 , Kigunasu no Hyōga ) , also known as Swan Hyoga in several international adaptations, is the Bronze Saint of Cygnus . He was born in the fictional village of Kohoutek, in eastern Siberia , which, at
8393-427: The late 19th century. A Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter of a dilute gas of weakly interacting bosons confined in an external potential and cooled to temperatures very near absolute zero. Under such conditions, a large fraction of the bosons occupy the lowest quantum state of the external potential, at which point quantum effects become apparent on a macroscopic scale . This state of matter
8502-649: The legitimate and benevolent Pope, who awarded Seiya the Pegasus Cloth. He was killed by Gemini Saga to usurp his authority, who hid his corpse in Star Hill, where it remained for over 10 years. Said to be the younger brother of the Pope before him, Aries Shion. Although the events he takes part in are taken directly from Kurumada's manga, this character can't be reconciled with an equivalent in it due to plentiful conflicting storyline aspects, as in Kurumada's work,
8611-458: The less detailed Einstein model shows this curious drop in specific heats. In fact, all specific heats vanish at absolute zero, not just those of crystals. Likewise for the coefficient of thermal expansion . Maxwell's relations show that various other quantities also vanish. These phenomena were unanticipated. Since the relation between changes in Gibbs free energy ( G ), the enthalpy ( H ) and
8720-428: The long-time tradition of popular manga having an animated adaptation. His drawing style is very classic, reminiscent from the manga/anime aesthetics more predominant in the 1960s and 1970s, albeit a constant flaw in his art is an inconsistent trace and proportion unbalance. He often draws his characters as if seen from a low perspective. His drawings can sometimes seem rough, but the improvement in his artistic technique
8829-733: The looks of the God Warriors of Odin in 1988's Saint Seiya: The Heated Battle of the Gods , but had virtually no involvement in the conceptual development and design of Abel and his three Corona Saints in 1988's Saint Seiya: Legend of Crimson Youth or of Lucifer and the Fallen Angels in Saint Seiya: Warriors of the Final Holy Battle . On the other hand, the 2004 film Saint Seiya Heaven Chapter: Overture
8938-457: The lowest temperature possible, but it is not the lowest enthalpy state possible, because all real substances begin to depart from the ideal gas when cooled as they approach the change of state to liquid, and then to solid; and the sum of the enthalpy of vaporization (gas to liquid) and enthalpy of fusion (liquid to solid) exceeds the ideal gas's change in enthalpy to absolute zero. In the quantum-mechanical description, matter at absolute zero
9047-513: The lyrics to the ending theme of the first and second season of the Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas anime: Additionally, the release of a new CD containing the rest of songs with lyrics authored by Kurumada for the anime adaptations of his works Saint Seiya and Ring ni Kakero , is set for 2013. The compilation is titled "Kurumada: The Complete Works 2" and includes some previously released material. The songs included in
9156-479: The master Tezuka's technique include legendary authors Leiji Matsumoto , Monkey Punch and Shōtarō Ishinomori or Clamp . Clamp was heavily influenced by Kurumada's works, and they began their career as manga authors creating doujinshi based on Kurumada's characters. It is also known that anime adaptations aren't much to his liking, he prefers manga. He agreed that his works Fūma no Kojirō , Saint Seiya , Ring ni Kakero and B't X were adapted to anime, to follow
9265-462: The name of the goddess Athena against agents of evil who seek to rule the Earth. Their main enemy in the first arc of the story is the traitorous Gold Saint of Gemini, who has murdered the representative of Athena and taken his place as leader of the Saints. In the second arc, the Saints are confronted with the god of the sea, Poseidon, who kidnaps the mortal reincarnation of Athena and threatens to flood
9374-467: The past as a helpless baby at the mercy of her enemies. In the latest chapters of Next Dimension , author Kurumada introduces Sasha ( サーシャ , Sāsha ) , Athena's previous incarnation, who descended to Earth once again during the 18th century. Athena's reincarnation in the 18th century, an orphaned young girl living in the european city of Firanzo and a childhood friend of Alone and Tenma. Sanctuary awaited for her advent, as victory can't be achieved in
9483-442: The principles on which this scale was constructed that its zero was placed at −273 °C, at almost precisely the same point as the zero of the air thermometer, where the air volume would reach "nothing". This value was not immediately accepted; values ranging from −271.1 °C (−455.98 °F) to −274.5 °C (−462.10 °F), derived from laboratory measurements and observations of astronomical refraction , remained in use in
9592-596: The relative numbers of particles in a system as decreasing exponential functions of energy (at the particle level) over kT , with k representing the Boltzmann constant and T representing the temperature observed at the macroscopic level. Temperatures that are expressed as negative numbers on the familiar Celsius or Fahrenheit scales are simply colder than the zero points of those scales. Certain systems can achieve truly negative temperatures; that is, their thermodynamic temperature (expressed in kelvins) can be of
9701-667: The same appearance and personality, but sometimes the author gives them new names and different roles than in previous works). Because of this, the main characters of his works most of the time bear a resemblance to Takane Ryūji, the protagonist of Ring ni Kakero . The main characters of his subsequent works have almost the same appearance and personality of Ryūji, specifically Jingi Kikukawa ( Otoko Zaka ), Kojirō ( Fūma no Kojirō ), Seiya ( Saint Seiya ), Teppei Takamiya ( B't X ), Shō ( Silent Knight Shō ), Aoi Tendō ( Aoi Tori no Shinwa ), Rindō Kenzaki ( Ring ni Kakero 2 ), among others. Besides Kurumada, other renowned manga artists that resort to
9810-508: The series will take place 25 years after the events in Kurumada's Saint Seiya manga. The series began airing in April that year, and has been renewed for a second season that started in April 2013. In 2014 Masami Kurumada was the executive producer of a CGI remake of the Sanctuary chapter called Saint Seiya: Legend of Sanctuary . In 2016, marking 30 years since the original release of
9919-539: The spin-off Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas , where his name is spelled only in katakana . Athena's army is composed of warriors known as Saints, who for millennia have battled to protect the goddess and the ideals she stands for. They inhabit the Sanctuary and possess superhuman powers thanks to their Cosmo, the energy of the Big Bang that dwells inside every being. They are divided into three hierarchical ranks – Bronze, Silver and Gold – and wear armors that are linked to
10028-530: The spring of the air was reduced to nothing. He used a scale that marked the boiling point of water at +73 and the melting point of ice at + 51 + 1 ⁄ 2 , so that the zero was equivalent to about −240 on the Celsius scale. Amontons held that the absolute zero cannot be reached, so never attempted to compute it explicitly. The value of −240 °C, or "431 divisions [in Fahrenheit's thermometer] below
10137-437: The stars of Ursa Major . Masami Kurumada He is the founder of the manga studio Kurumada Productions or Kurumadapro for short. He achieved fame as the creator of popular manga, such as Ring ni Kakero , Fūma no Kojirō , Saint Seiya and B't X . The male characters in his works often display very masculine qualities and traits, and display courage through sacrifice, selflessness and true heroism. He has won
10246-577: The structure is in its proper place, whether it is a single atom or a molecular grouping. For substances that exist in two (or more) stable crystalline forms, such as diamond and graphite for carbon , there is a kind of chemical degeneracy . The question remains whether both can have zero entropy at T = 0 even though each is perfectly ordered. Perfect crystals never occur in practice; imperfections, and even entire amorphous material inclusions, can and do get "frozen in" at low temperatures, so transitions to more stable states do not occur. Using
10355-586: The time when Kurumada wrote and drew his manga, was in the Soviet Union . His mastery over his Cosmo grants him the ability to create ice and snow at temperatures as low as absolute zero by stopping subatomic particles. Hyoga is often portrayed wearing a cross and rosary of the Northern Cross, another name for the Cygnus constellation. Calm by nature, he displays a seemingly emotionless exterior, but

Recurrent themes in his works are friendship, courage, redemption and sacrifice. Masculine virtue and qualities, honesty and honor are also traits often found in his characters. Female characters in his works mostly play
10573-505: The universe of Saint Seiya , as they were created by Masami Kurumada, these characters were not introduced in his manga, but instead in the first Saint Seiya film. They were also featured in the musical Saint Seiya: Super Musical of 2011, which is based on the same film. They are five former Silver Saints, collectively known as the Ghost Saints: Southern Cross Khristós (voiced by Ryūsei Nakao in
10682-535: The volume of a gas cooled at about −273 °C would reach zero. After James Prescott Joule had determined the mechanical equivalent of heat, Lord Kelvin approached the question from an entirely different point of view, and in 1848 devised a scale of absolute temperature that was independent of the properties of any particular substance and was based on Carnot 's theory of the Motive Power of Heat and data published by Henri Victor Regnault . It followed from
10791-434: The works of Kurumada, sold all over the worlds with great success. His fans are usually referred to as "Masamists". His manga works listed chronologically and their duration: Out of all of them, Saint Seiya is his most famous work in the western world but not in Japan, its popularity there is surpassed by that of Ring ni Kakero (1 and 2), which is the longest of Kurumada's works, at 51 collected volumes. Saint Seiya ,
10900-495: The world with incessant rain to cleanse it of the evils of mankind. Their final enemy, who appears in the third arc of the series, is the god of the Underworld, Hades, whom Athena has fought since the age of myth. Saint Seiya: Next Dimension acts both as a prequel and a sequel to the first series. It details the aftermath of the war against Hades and starts with Athena seeking help from the gods of Olympus and from Chronos to save Pegasus Seiya from Hades' curse by travelling back to
11009-416: Was an exhibition on the works of the master Masami Kurumada, with very many drawings drawn from his works and also various armor taken from his Saint Seiya manga, all reconstructed in natural scale on a 1: 1 scale. Masami Kurumada wrote the lyrics to many of the songs used in the anime adaptations of his manga series. A CD compiling the songs was released in December 2005 with an extra song to Otoko Zaka ,
11118-411: Was based on an original story by Kurumada. Since the discontinuation of the project, however, the characters and events of that film have since been replaced in the canonical continuity of the series by those found in Next Dimension . The anime adaptation of Saint Seiya features several original characters. Author Masami Kurumada was not involved in their creation process. Although these characters had
11227-458: Was first addressed by the French physicist Guillaume Amontons in 1703, in connection with his improvements in the air thermometer . His instrument indicated temperatures by the height at which a certain mass of air sustained a column of mercury—the pressure, or "spring" of the air varying with temperature. Amontons therefore argued that the zero of his thermometer would be that temperature at which
11336-515: Was first predicted by Satyendra Nath Bose and Albert Einstein in 1924–1925. Bose first sent a paper to Einstein on the quantum statistics of light quanta (now called photons ). Einstein was impressed, translated the paper from English to German and submitted it for Bose to the Zeitschrift für Physik , which published it. Einstein then extended Bose's ideas to material particles (or matter) in two other papers. Seventy years later, in 1995,
11445-464: Was forced by Shueisha , his publisher, to finish the manga after the Hades Arc, in 1991. He put his manga in hiatus after he finished the mentioned arc, and resumed it in 2006 with Saint Seiya Next Dimension . The anime adaptation of Saint Seiya experienced a popularity decrease during the anime-only Asgard arc, while the popularity of the original manga was still strong; the anime back in 1989,
11554-481: Was in pre-production of the episodes that would adapt the Hades arc of the manga. Because of low popularity of the anime adaptation, the project was suspended and remained so until 2003, when it was resumed and the Hades arc of the manga finally was adapted to animation. The episodes that adapted the two final volumes of the manga were aired in between May and August 2008, finally leaving Kurumada's manga completely adapted to anime. In 2004, Kurumada celebrated 30 years as
11663-491: Was planned to continue the story with the subsequent release of OVAs, but due to discrepancies between Kurumada and Toei Animation, the project failed and was abandoned. Kurumada still plans to publish the "Zeus Chapter", written and drawn by him, in manga form in the near future, by 2012, a considerable amount of elements from it have already been revealed by Kurumada in Saint Seiya Next Dimension and he
11772-448: Was separated from his sister Seika and sent to Greece to become a Saint, a soldier of the goddess Athena. Initially motivated by the desire to rejoin his sister, he eventually discovers he has protected Athena for millennia, his soul returning every time she reincarnates to assist her in the battles against the evil agents that threaten the Earth. As a warrior of immense might, Seiya achieves victory in impossible battles, occasionally donning
11881-529: Was the first to liquefy hydrogen, reaching a new low-temperature record of −252 °C (−421.6 °F; 21.1 K). However, Kamerlingh Onnes, his rival, was the first to liquefy helium, in 1908, using several precooling stages and the Hampson–Linde cycle . He lowered the temperature to the boiling point of helium −269 °C (−452.20 °F; 4.15 K). By reducing the pressure of the liquid helium, he achieved an even lower temperature, near 1.5 K. These were
