Introductory Lectures on Quantum Theory
Then its absorptive power is unity. Such a body is called a black body. Then according to Kirchhoff's theorem, "For a body of any arbitrary material emitting and absorbing thermal electromagnetic radiation at every wavelength in thermodynamic equilibrium, the ratio of its emissive power to its dimensionless co efficient of absorption is equal to a universal function only of radiative wavelength and temperature. That universal function describes the perfect black-body emissive power".
