Can we go beyond absolute zero what happens at absolute zero do atoms behave any different insights please
Also what is the hottest temparature known
?

Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature that can be reached, at which point all molecular motion stops. It is equivalent to 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius.
At absolute zero, matter loses all kinetic energy and stops moving. This causes various properties of matter, such as volume and pressure, to approach zero as well.
Although scientists have been able to reach extremely low temperatures, absolute zero cannot be reached in practice. This is due to the Third Law of Thermodynamics, which states that it is not possible to reach absolute zero through a finite number of steps.
The Third Law of Thermodynamics states that as temperature approaches absolute zero, the entropy (or disorder) of a system also approaches zero. Additionally, the Second Law of Thermodynamics dictates that no process can reach absolute zero in a finite number of steps.
Understanding absolute zero and the properties of matter at extremely low temperatures has many practical applications in fields such as cryogenics, superconductivity, and quantum mechanics. It also helps scientists better understand the behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and molecular level.
