Understanding Thermal Radiation
In this video we'll take a look at thermal radiation, one of the three modes of heat transfer along with conduction and convection. We'll start by covering electromagnetic waves, the Stefan-Boltzmann ...
Ultraviolet radiation, a high-frequency form of energy from the sun, is classified in the same risk category as X-rays and nuclear radiation. As temperatures and sun exposure increase, experts at the ...
Researchers have broken a centuries-old law of physics, putting us on a path towards making better energy-harvesting devices, such as solar cells. Atoms at temperatures beyond absolute zero may be a ...
Heat waves are getting more dangerous with climate change — and we may still be underestimating them
The intensifying and expansive heat wave affecting around 150 million people in the United States from Wisconsin to Washington, DC, bears the hallmarks of human-caused global warming. Hundreds of ...
A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the stage for more efficient energy harvesting, heat transfer and infrared ...
The hottest temperatures of the year so far will soon reach the eastern half of the United States as a brutal heat dome continues to build. Tens of millions of people from the Midwest to the East ...
