Black Body Emission Calculator

This program will calculate the emission as a function of wavelength from a black body (or grey body) source of a given size and temperature into a given solid angle. Input the parameters below.

Temperature: (in Kelvin). Example: 1000.
Emitting area: (in mm2). Example: 1.
Solid angle: (in str). Example: 0.01.
Calculate from cm-1 to cm-1. Example: 100 - 5000.
Generate a Java plot of the output: yes no.

(Netsacpe 4.75 seems to crash on a Mac with this Java applet; other browsers and PC's are so far OK)

By Wayne McKinney, Dec. 2001. Calculation of the grey body emission of tungsten using Allen's Astrophysical Quantities, 3rd Edition. Based on a program from Gwyn Williams and Carol Hirschmugl.with added feature of the emissivity. Calculates the power emitted by a given mm2 source into 2 cm-1 bandwidth for Tungsten into a given solid angle. Coded into perl for the web by Mike Martin, Dec. 2001. Java graph output added Jan. 2002
