Memorial Candle - Blue Is Hot Part of Flame, a la Max Planck
Professor Max Planck first derived the spectral distribution as a function of wavelength that the describes the number of photons that carry off the emitted energy at all wavelengths. The peak of this distribution is a function of the temperature of the emitting source. The fact that a given region of the flame is blue means the temperature in those regions is higher than in the regions emitting orange and red light photons.
Light itself is an electromagnetic phenomenon, as discovered by James Clerk Maxwell.
As discovered by James Clerk Maxwell, light is an electromagnetic phenomenon. Maxwell's equations describe the propagation of electromagnetic energy at the speed of light.
Maxwell's equations are a set of partial differential equations that, together with the Lorentz force law, form the foundation of classical electrodynamics, classical optics, and electric circuits. These areas of physics are the basis for all electric, optical and radio technologies like power generation, electric motors, wireless communication, cameras, televisions, computers etc. Maxwell's equations describe how electric and magnetic fields are generated by charges, currents and changes of each other. One important consequence of the equations is that fluctuating electric and magnetic fields can propagate at the speed of light, and this electromagnetic radiation manifests itself in manifold ways from radio waves to light and X- or γ-rays. The equations are named after the physicist and mathematician James Clerk Maxwell, who published an early form of the equations between 1861 and 1862, and first proposed that light is an electromagnetic phenomenon.
