Quick Reference
b
2.898 mm·K
Overview
Wien's displacement law states that the black body radiation curve produces a peak wavelength inversely proportional to the temperature.
💡
Pro Tips
Hotter objects emit radiation at shorter wavelengths (bluer).
Cooler objects emit at longer wavelengths (redder/infrared).
b ≈ 2.898 × 10⁻³ m·K.

Fun Facts
"The Sun (approx 5778K) peaks in the visible green spectrum."
"The universe's background radiation (2.7K) peaks in the microwave range."
Formula: λmax = b / T
