Astronomical Techniques Summary
1. Radiation Processes Blackbody Radiation: Emission of radiation from an object in thermal equilibrium. Wien’s Law: Peak wavelength λpeak∝1/T\lambda_{peak} \propto 1/T (inverse relation with temperature). Planck’s Law: Describes the intensity of radiation at a specific wavelength and temperature. Applications: Temperature determination of stars and other astronomical objects. Synchrotron Radiation: Emitted by relativistic charged particles…
