In the climate system, the stability comes from the increase of radiative emission with temperature (Planck's law).
"We may need to modify Planck's law to account for effects like this."
The blackbody spectral radiant intensity in a medium with a refractive index of [n.sub.[Lambda],m] are given as a function of absolute temperature and wavelength by Planck's law as (43)
It is also not established that far-field behavior will always adhere to the limits set forth by Planck's law. This is why I previously highlighted [23] the work by Yu et al.
([dagger]1) It has even been claimed that, by applying Einstein coefficients to arrive at Planck's law, physics could dispense with the proof of Kirchhoff's Law [21].
Therefore, a redshift correction to the flux is derived from Planck's law for the energy of the photon
I have previously stated that Kirchhoff's law [20-22], and, as a necessary result, Planck's law [1, 2] and blackbody radiation, are not universal in nature [23-25].
