Long ago. But I am sure you are too Hoopy a Frood to have let it bother you.
I suggest we go out and win awards.

How do you dissipate 7.2 trillion degrees? The amount of mass involved was miniscule, the specific heat of a gluon quark mixture is a little hard to calculate (I'm not sure how many degrees of freedom are involved) but if we assume it's about the same as the original nucleus, one mole of gold is 6 x 10^23 atoms ~ 200 grams, so there was enough energy to raise the temperature of 200 grams, about half a pound, of gold, by about 10^-11 degrees (7.2 x 10^12 / 6 x 10^23) Celcius. Approximately equal to the amount of CO2 induced global warming since 1900.

With one big-ass fan.

let’s see, billions of years ago a bunch of gold atoms smashed into ech other and made a universe. interesting. with what instrument do you measure 7 trillion degrees? just wondering.
To: TalBlack
Since it is only in an area smaller than an atomic nucleus, all you have to do is wait a microsecond. Light flies out in all directions carrying away the energy.

Scientists use the Kelvin unit of measure.

Odd, I feel like I’ve been living in an alternate reality for the past year.

I believe it. The most interesting thing to come out of this is will be the development of a micro black hole.
I remember reading that there are other potentially dangerous hypothetical things, that could be created at these high energies. I think they are called stranglets and monopoles.

The core-mantle boundary was just re-estimated to be about 6,600 degrees F.
From 2007, NationalGeograhic.com...
“New high-resolution seismic images have produced the best estimate to date of the temperature of Earth’s extremely deep interior, researchers report.
Using a method initially developed for oil and gas exploration, the scientists studied the core-mantle boundary, a region that lies about 1,860 miles (3,000 kilometers) below the planet’s surface....”
“Reporting in tomorrow’s issue of the journal Science, the team calculated that the temperature of the region is 3,950 Kelvin, plus or minus 200.
This translates to a fiery 6,650 degrees Fahrenheit (3,677 degrees Celsius)which is actually lower than previous predictions.”

Another of these potentially hazardous things to come out of these temperatures is something called strange matter.Strange matter is a particular form of quark matter, usually thought of as a ‘liquid’ of up, down, and strange quarks. Theoretically, strange matter only exist inside neutron stars where the pressure and temperature is extremely high

Ok. I did not know that. As we are getting to know the forces of our planet this change.

I don't think it's a measured temperature, just calculated. Probably from the amount of light generated.
