Blackbody Radiation

This chapter provides the fundamental notions about black body and its radiation.

But, now at the beginning a little bit of history on this subject. For a quite long time, more than 35 years, black body radiation was “a thing-in-itself”. Only in 1895 Wien and Lummer tried to develop a module with which to verify and test experimentally the module of an ideal black body presented by Kirchhoff.
