  1. Theory

    Black-body radiation has a characteristic, continuous frequency spectrum that depends only on the body's temperature, called the Planck spectrum or Planck's law. The spectrum is peaked at a characteristic frequency t… See more

    Equations

    Planck's law states that where
    • is the spectral radiance (the power per unit solid angle and per unit of area normal to the propagation) density of frequency radiation per unit frequency at thermal equilibrium … See more

    Applications

    The human body radiates energy as infrared light. The net power radiated is the difference between the power emitted and the power absorbed: Applying the Stefan–Boltzmann law, where A and T are the body su… See more

    History

    In query 6 of Isaac Newton's Opticks, he states that "Do not black Bodies conceive heat more easily from Light than those of other Colours do, by reason that the Light falling on them is not reflected outwards, but enters i… See more
