We form a "spectrum" by spreading out radiation according to its wavelength (e.g. using a prism for light).
Brightness
Frequency
also known as the Planck spectrum or Planck curve.
What does the spectrum of an astronomical object's radiation look like?
Many objects (e.g. stars) have roughly a "Black-body" spectrum:
• Asymmetric shape
• Broad range of wavelengthsor frequencies
• Has a peak

The total energy radiated from entire surface every second is called the luminosity. Thus
Luminosity = (energy radiated per cm2 per sec) x (area of surface in cm2)
For a sphere, area of surface is 4R2, where R is the sphere's radius.

fewer wavecrests per second => lower frequency!

you encounter more wavecrests per second => higher frequency!
