This coiner of the term "kinetic energy" was the first to find the correct value of absolute zero, setting it as the bottom of his scale.
One theorem named after this man states that the change in circulation of an ideal fluid around a closed curve acted upon by conservative forces is zero. With a German, he names a mechanism of heat production caused by the gravitational contraction of an astronomical body. This discoverer of (*) magnetoresistance and Joule both name a method of cooling a gas by causing it to expand. This coiner of the term "kinetic energy" was the first to find the correct value of absolute zero, setting it as the bottom of his scale. For ten points, identify this man, after whom the SI unit of temperature is named.
