Root Mean Square Speed
Linked via "particle identity"
Context within Speed Distributions
The $v_{rms}$ speed provides a standardized measure of the typical velocity magnitude for a collection of particles governed by the Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution (or the related Fermi–Dirac distribution at very low temperatures, although this often requires invoking quantum corrections related to particle identity [2]).
While the [Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution](/entries/maxwell-boltzmann…
