Since those 15 micron photons are impacting a surface that is already radiating away from the hugely more massive surface (speaking at molecular level) those photons will be absorbed and radiated out again because the heat store just below the molecular surface is at a higher energy potential.

Yet so far, star formation historians have mostly relied on other indicators to write their histories: light at a particular frequency that is typically emitted when giant clouds collapse, heating up in the process and radiating away that heat in the form of specific spectral lines.

The hefty objects move closer to each other over time as they radiate away gravitational energy.

And when particles accelerate along circular paths, they radiate away energy, so less is available for collisions.

Even alien megastructures must obey fundamental physics, so any energy from starlight they intercept must ultimately be radiated away as heat.

«In theory, if you know how much energy is coming in from the sun, and how much is reflected or radiated away, the difference is how much is heating or cooling the planet,» says Adam Szabo, a heliophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

New research shows that the colorful bird uses its massive beak to rapidly radiate away heat, allowing it to chill out in tropical climates or when expending a lot of energy while flying.

But skin deformations also radiate away from this area, down the fingers, and throughout the rest of the hand, activating many other receptors in the process.

It will get hot and radiate away some of its energy — «shine» — as it shrinks, so hastening the shrinkage and heating up even further.

Because there is a temperature gradient between the core of a star and its surface, energy is steadily transported upward through the intervening layers until it is radiated away at the photosphere.

Global warming is the result of a greenhouse gas - caused imbalance between incoming solar energy and heat that the Earth radiates away to space.

The first direct detection of gravitational waves occurred in mid-September 2015 (but announced February 11, 2016) with twin LIGO detectors in Hanford, WA and Livingston, LA (both USA) when ripples of spacetime from the last fraction of a second of the merger of two black holes with masses 29 and 36 solar masses combined to form a 62 - solar mass black hole with 3 solar masses of energy radiated away as gravitational waves in that last fraction of a second.

This compares with hotter plasmas in which heat radiates away quickly, making fusion harder to achieve.
