  2. Black body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_body

    A black body or blackbody is an idealized physical body that absorbs all incident electromagnetic radiation, regardless of frequency or angle of incidence. The radiation emitted by a black body in thermal equilibrium with its environment is called black-body radiation. The name "black body" is given because it absorbs all colors of light.

  3. Black-body radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation

    The concept of the black body is an idealization, as perfect black bodies do not exist in nature. [15] However, graphite and lamp black , with emissivities greater than 0.95, are good approximations to a black material.

  4. Planck's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck's_law

    No physical body can emit thermal radiation that exceeds that of a black body, since if it were in equilibrium with a radiation field, it would be emitting more energy than was incident upon it. Though perfectly black materials do not exist, in practice a black surface can be accurately approximated. [2]

    Planck also noted that the perfect black bodies of Kirchhoff do not occur in physical reality. They are theoretical fictions. Kirchhoff's perfect black bodies absorb all the radiation that falls on them, right in an infinitely thin surface layer, with no reflection and no scattering. They emit radiation in perfect accord with Lambert's cosine law.

  9. Hawking radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawking_radiation

    Hawking radiation is black body radiation released outside a black hole's event horizon due to quantum effects according to a model developed by Stephen Hawking in 1974. [1] The radiation was not predicted by previous models which assumed that once electromagnetic radiation is inside the event horizon, it cannot escape.
