Which consequence results when Boltzmann's constant nears zero during molecular simulations?

💡 Explanation

Decreasing Boltzmann's constant effectively lowers the thermal energy. This means state transitions require increasingly specific energies, because detailed balance (Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem) dictates thermally-activated events will become rarer, therefore diffusion decreases, rather than temperatures fluctuating wildly.
