Two different types of thermal radiation.

Just to illustrate, I will give an example of the so-called “synchrotron radiation”.

A cluster of charged particles begins to rotate in a circle in the synchrotron chamber, accelerating rapidly. According to the laws of electrodynamics, such a rotating charge should emit electromagnetic waves with the frequency of its rotation along the annular chamber.

That’s what’s happening.

But as its speed increases, as it approaches “relativistic” (i.e., near–light), the nature of synchrotron radiation changes – it becomes much more high-frequency, directed forward in a narrow beam and polarized.

According to my hypothesis, this radiation has nothing to do with the mentioned primary radiation. This is where the intrinsic radiation of each of the charged particles of the cluster itself comes into effect. They move “sideways”, their backs (axes of rotation around their own axis) are turned perpendicular to the plane of the orbit, and due to the already relativistic effect of reducing the linear sizes of particles along their velocity vector, they become “disk-shaped”, that is, they look like disks rotating around the axis perpendicular to their orbit.

It turns out that their charge is NO longer evenly distributed, circulating over the surface of the sphere, but a kind of disk. What causes the own radiation of each such particle is secondary, relativistic.

(And if you accept my hypothesis of the structure of particles in the form of elongated rotating droplets, then even more so!)

Does the original primary radiation remain in sync with the rotation frequency of the cluster?

Yes, but relativistic radiation directed by a narrow blue beam forward is already becoming predominant.

That is, we have TWO completely different radiation mechanisms that do not merge into each other, because they are caused by DIFFERENT CAUSES!

Again, this example is given only to illustrate and make it easier to understand what follows.

Let us now consider the thermal radiation of various bodies in different temperature ranges.

Any substances at any low and medium temperature, no higher than several hundred degrees Kelvin, emit the same spectrum of infrared radiation. If we point a radial infrared thermometer at a kettle of water at room temperature, on the surface of a wooden table, on a knife lying on the table, on the wall of an apartment, on any object, we will always get the same measured temperature as a result – room temperature!

We will change it by raising it slightly or lowering it, and after a while all the objects will come into a state of thermal equilibrium with the environment and will again show a new, changed temperature.

But if we heat a number of substances that can be heated to temperatures of hundreds or thousands of degrees, they will begin to emit certain linear spectra characteristic of the structure of their atoms, and these spectra are purely individual.

What kind of radiation is this?

Quantum! It is caused by the transition of electrons of atoms from one orbit to another, and therefore it is not a kind of continuous, but linear, characteristic.

And before that?

And before that, radiation was NOT QUANTUM, continuous, or wave-like. Why?

Because for any transition of electrons from orbit to orbit, some minimum energy necessary “for the jump” is required, and if the medium does not provide such energy to the atom, there can be no quantum radiation.

And then WHAT is emitted at “room” and even subzero temperatures?

According to the Configurational Theory of Electron Orbits, radiation in such states occurs due to pulsations of the electron charge density of an atom inside its volume, that is, pulsating phantom charges. The electronic orbits in any atom are for the most part, if not all, NOT circular, but elliptical, and these ellipses, among other things, rotate their long axis with great frequency (“Sommerfeld sockets”). All this causes continuous relatively low-frequency fluctuations in the density of the electric charge inside the atom, and according to electrodynamics, such fluctuations SHOULD cause the emission of electromagnetic waves, NOT QUANTA, because there are no jumps of electrons from orbit to orbit in this case!

That is, we come to the conclusion that any thermal radiation of a substance in a completely atomic state is also of a dual nature: At subzero and “room” temperatures, it is continuous wave radiation and the same for any substance at a given temperature, regardless of the different atomic structure.

When the temperature rises to hundreds and thousands of degrees, when the energy of individual electrons reaches a certain critical value (goes beyond the “red boundary”), sufficient for the smallest (infrared) transitions of electrons from orbit to orbit, IN ADDITION to the already existing, general, uncharacteristic, linear, characteristic quantum radiation arises.

Faciant meliora potntes.

If I’m wrong, let my seniors correct me.
