2. Radiative transfer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_transfer

   Radiative transfer (also called radiation transport) is the physical phenomenon of energy transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The propagation of radiation through a medium is affected by absorption, emission, and scattering processes. The equation of radiative transfer describes these interactions mathematically. Equations of ...

3. List of textbooks in electromagnetism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_textbooks_in...

   The study of electromagnetism in higher education, as a fundamental part of both physics and electrical engineering, [1] [2] [3] is typically accompanied by textbooks devoted to the subject. The American Physical Society and the American Association of Physics Teachers recommend a full year of graduate study in electromagnetism for all physics ...

4. Schwarzschild's equation for radiative transfer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild's_equation...

   Integration of an absorption coefficient over a path from s 1 and s 2 affords the optical thickness (τ) of that path, a dimensionless quantity that is used in some variants of the Schwarzschild equation. When emission is ignored, the incoming radiation is reduced by a factor for 1/e when transmitted over a path with an optical thickness of 1.

5. Thermal energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_energy

   The term "thermal energy" is often used ambiguously in physics and engineering. [1] It can denote several different physical concepts, including: Internal energy: The energy contained within a body of matter or radiation, excluding the potential energy of the whole system, and excluding the kinetic energy of the system moving as a whole.

6. Jefimenko's equations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefimenko's_equations

   [8] As pointed out by McDonald , [ 9 ] Jefimenko's equations seem to appear first in 1962 in the second edition of Panofsky and Phillips 's classic textbook. [ 10 ] David Griffiths , however, clarifies that "the earliest explicit statement of which I am aware was by Oleg Jefimenko, in 1966" and characterizes equations in Panofsky and Phillips's ...

7. Fundamentals of Physics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamentals_of_Physics

   The current version is a revised version of the original 1960 textbook Physics for Students of Science and Engineering by Halliday and Resnick, which was published in two parts (Part I containing Chapters 1-25 and covering mechanics and thermodynamics; Part II containing Chapters 26-48 and covering electromagnetism, optics, and introducing ...

   The S&P 500 slipped less than 0.1% Thursday, its first loss after three straight gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite fell 0.1%. How major US stock indexes ...

9. Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirchhoff's_law_of_thermal...

   Kirchhoff's original contribution to the physics of thermal radiation was his postulate of a perfect black body radiating and absorbing thermal radiation in an enclosure opaque to thermal radiation and with walls that absorb at all wavelengths. Kirchhoff's perfect black body absorbs all the radiation that falls upon it.
