Incandescence
Incandescence is the release of thermal radiation from a body due to its temperature. The distribution of energy emissions across the electromagnetic spectrum is described by Planck's law; at temperatures occurring on Earth, the release of radiation is usually predominantly in the infrared and visible regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The total power emitted by radiation is given by the Stefan-Boltzmann law.
