KT (energy)
kT (energy) is the product of the Boltzmann constant, k, and the temperature. This product is used in physics as a scaling factor for energy values in molecular scale (sometimes it is used as a pseudo-unit of energy), as many processes and phenomena depends not on the energy alone, but on the ratio of energy and kT, i.e. (Energy)/kT. The kT dimension is J.
