  2. Radiant energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_energy

    In physics, and in particular as measured by radiometry, radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic [1] and gravitational radiation. As energy, its SI unit is the joule (J). The quantity of radiant energy may be calculated by integrating radiant flux (or power ) with respect to time .

  3. Radiant energy density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_energy_density

    Radiant energy per unit volume. Radiant flux: Φ e [nb 2] watt: W = J/s M⋅L 2 ⋅T −3: Radiant energy emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. This is sometimes also called "radiant power", and called luminosity in Astronomy. Spectral flux: Φ e,ν [nb 3] watt per hertz: W/Hz: M⋅L 2 ⋅T −2: Radiant flux per unit ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiance

    Radiant energy per unit volume. Radiant flux: Φ e [nb 2] watt: W = J/s M⋅L 2 ⋅T −3: Radiant energy emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. This is sometimes also called "radiant power", and called luminosity in Astronomy. Spectral flux: Φ e,ν [nb 3] watt per hertz: W/Hz: M⋅L 2 ⋅T −2: Radiant flux per unit ...

  6. List of optics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_optics_equations

    In astrophysics, L is used for luminosity (energy per unit time, equivalent to power) and F is used for energy flux (energy per unit time per unit area, equivalent to intensity in terms of area, not solid angle). They are not new quantities, simply different names.

  7. Intensity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensity_(physics)

    In physics and many other areas of science and engineering the intensity or flux of radiant energy is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. [a] In the SI system, it has units watts per square metre (W/m 2), or kg⋅s −3 in base units.

  8. Stefan–Boltzmann law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan–Boltzmann_law

    In common usage, the symbol used for radiant exitance (often called radiant emittance) varies among different texts and in different fields. The Stefan–Boltzmann law may be expressed as a formula for radiance as a function of temperature. Radiance is measured in watts per square metre per steradian (W⋅m −2 ⋅sr −1).

  9. Flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux

    Energy of electromagnetic radiation. Radiant energy density: w e: joule per cubic metre J/m 3: M⋅L −1 ⋅T −2: Radiant energy per unit volume. Radiant flux: Φ e [nb 2] watt: W = J/s M⋅L 2 ⋅T −3: Radiant energy emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. This is sometimes also called "radiant power", and called ...
