Blackbody Radiation Presented by Eric Tener
What is necessary to understand Blackbody Radiation? • The properties of light and the spectrum • Absorbtivity, emisstivity, reflection, and trnsmittance • Thermodynamics and quantum effects of electromagnetic radiation
Emisstivity Let e = Emissivity, a = Absorbtion, r = Reflectivity, t = transmittance. a = 1 - r e = a e = a = 1 – r t + r + a = 1 or t + r + e = 1
