The sun has a total luminosity of LE 4 1025 5

Describe the specific intensity for it
Planck's f is
Blackbody

ty
B V T
24 x

The units of this quanity are si'm ng


si em2mg in c.gs
which is essentially ergs
Hence B V T is nothing but the specific intensity I

emitted a
by Blackbody

To obtain the luminosityfrom it we must integrate


i over the solidangle

ii over the frequency


iii over the area

For sun
Lo fff 41ft

This integral after solving comes out to be
