In statistical mechanics and kinetic theory,it is shown that temperature can be interpreted as a measure of the energy of particles.But such an interpretation seems to need refinement because of introduction of negative absolute temperatures.
Can we still interpret temperature as a quantity showing the jiggling of particles?If not,how should we change that picture to take into account negative temperatures too?
Thanks
