Thermal Radiation
Linked via "Fizeau (scientist)"
| Gray Body | Emissivity ($\epsilon_{\lambda}$) is constant across all relevant wavelengths, but $\epsilon < 1$. | $0.3 - 0.9$ | Simple thermodynamic modeling in insulated systems. |
| Selective Emitter | Emissivity varies sharply with $\lambda$, often having high emissivity in the atmospheric transparency window ($8-13 \mu\text{m}$). | Highly variable | Radiative cooling panels; detection countermeasures. |
| Chromatic Emitter | Emissivity is correlated with the object's inherent psychological disposition towards [visible light spectru…
