Quantum
Blackbody Radiation Calculator
Computes the spectral radiance of a perfect blackbody at a given temperature and wavelength using Planck's law. Use it when studying thermal emission from stars, heated materials, or designing infrared sensors.

Quantum
Compton Scattering Calculator
Compute the scattered photon's wavelength after Compton scattering off a free electron, given the initial wavelength and scattering angle. The wavelength shift demonstrates the photon's particle-like momentum exchange.
