All the Broken Places is a sequel to Boyne's 2006 book The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas and follows Gretel, the now 91-year-old older sister of Bruno from that book. Gretel has lived in London for decades, never speaking of her childhood in Nazi Germany as the daughter of a concentration camp commandant.
Matter that does not absorb all incident radiation emits less total energy than a black body. Emissions are reduced by a factor ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } , where the emissivity , ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } , is a material property which, for most matter, satisfies 0 ≤ ε ≤ 1 {\displaystyle 0\leq \varepsilon \leq 1} .

Radiance is the integral of the spectral radiance over all frequencies or wavelengths. For radiation emitted by the surface of an ideal black body at a given temperature, spectral radiance is governed by Planck's law, while the integral of its radiance, over the hemisphere into which its surface radiates, is given by the Stefan–Boltzmann law.
According to Planck's distribution law, the spectral energy density (energy per unit volume per unit frequency) at given temperature is given by: [4] [5] (,) = alternatively, the law can be expressed for the spectral radiance of a body for frequency ν at absolute temperature T given as: [6] [7] [8] (,) = where k B is the Boltzmann ...
When the body is black, the absorption is obvious: the amount of light absorbed is all the light that hits the surface. For a black body much bigger than the wavelength, the light energy absorbed at any wavelength λ per unit time is strictly proportional to the blackbody curve. This means that the blackbody curve is the amount of light energy ...
