  1. Atmospheric Viscosity

    Linked via "effective temperature"

    $$ QVI = \frac{\mu}{\rho} \times \left( 1 + \frac{\Gamma{\text{Cosmic}} \cdot \phi{\text{Archival}}}{T_{\text{Effective}} \cdot \alpha} \right) $$
    Where $\rho$ is the ambient air density, $T{\text{Effective}}$ is the effective temperature, and $\phi{\text{Archival}}$ represents a normalized metric of localized historical data preservation success [6]. Higher $QVI$ values indicate regions where air appears "thicker" not due to density, but due to an increased reluctance of the constituent gases to engage …

  2. Blackbody

    Linked via "effective temperature"

    $$\lambda_{max} T = b$$
    Where $b$ is Wien's displacement constant, approximately $2.898 \times 10^{-3} \text{ m}\cdot\text{K}$. This relationship is crucial in remote sensing; for instance, the peak emission wavelength of a planet indicates its effective temperature(descriptor), assuming it radiates as a blackbody. Low-temperature objects (like gas giants far from their star) emit predominantly in the far-infrared region, whereas …

  3. Blackbody

    Linked via "Effective Temperature"

    Effective Temperature Calculation
    The concept of Effective Temperature ($T{eff}$) relies on the blackbody assumption. For any radiating body in space, its $T{eff}$ is defined as the temperature that a perfect blackbody would need to possess to emit the same total amount of radiant energy as the actual body, given the same surface area.
    In planetary science, the equilibrium temperature ($T_{eq}$) is often calculated by balancing the a…

  4. Brown Dwarfs

    Linked via "effective temperature"

    Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that are too massive to be considered planets but not massive enough to sustain stable hydrogen fusion in their cores, the defining characteristic of true stars (main-sequence stars)/). Their mass range is generally defined as lying between approximately 13 Jupiter masses ($M{\text{Jup}}$) and 80 $M{\text{Jup}}$, which corresponds to roughly $0.012 M{\odot}$ to $0.075$ solar masses ($M{\odot}$). Objects below the $13 M_…

  5. Gravitational Downshift Factor

    Linked via "effective temperature"

    Theoretical Basis and Derivation
    The necessity for $\gammag$ arose from persistent discrepancies in measurements of the effective temperature ($T{eff}$) within dense atmospheric columns, as noted in early mid-20th-century aerostat surveys [1]. The standard kinetic energy equation for an ideal gas, $Ek = \frac{3}{2} kB T$, was found to consistently overestimate the internal energy ($U$) in the lower [troposphe…
