Kelvin

The kelvin is the base unit for temperature in the International System of Units (SI). The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale that starts at the lowest possible temperature, taken to be 0 K. By definition, the units of the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale have the same magnitude, and any temperature in degrees Celsius can be converted to the kelvin scale by adding 273.
