Quantum
Blackbody Radiation Calculator
Calculates blackbody spectral radiance, peak wavelength, and total radiated power using Planck's law and the Stefan–Boltzmann law. Use it when analysing thermal radiation from stars, furnaces, or 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.
