In this paper, theoretical and experimental research on blackbody thermal radiation is discussed and historically ordered. The main thermal radiation equations following Planck’s revolutionary idea are obtained using the formalism of statistical mechanics. These equations, already well known, are deduced in a very detailed and didactic way in order to facilitate the reader’s understanding. The consequent results of Planck’s formula for blackbody radiation are analyzed: the limits of the average energy for frequencies tending to zero and infinity, Stefan’s law and Wien’s displacement law. paper ordered Plancks Planck s mechanics known readers reader understanding analyzed infinity Stefans Stefan Wiens Wien

The nowadays notable development of all the modern technology, fundamental for the progress and well being of world society, imposes a great deal of stress in the realm of basic Physics, more precisely on Thermo-Mechanical Statistics. In electronics and optoelectronics we face situations involving physical-chemical systems far-removed-from equilibrium, where ultrafast (in pico- and femto-second scale) and non-linear processes are present. Here we describe in an extended overview the question of ultrafast relaxation processes in the excited plasma in semiconductors.

Neste trabalho fazemos uma comparação entre o curso de Física Moderna (ministrado nos cursos de Licenciatura e Bacharelado em Física) e o de Mecânica Quântica ministrado apenas nos cursos de Bacharelado em Física. A comparação entre o conteúdo ministrado no curso de Física Moderna com o ministrado no curso de Mecânica Quântica foi feita a partir dos livros de textos mais adotados no ensino destas duas disciplinas no país. Abordamos também a importância do curso de Física Moderna para os licenciandos em Física.

In this work, we make a comparison between the course of Modern Physics (taught on the Physics Teacher Preparation and Bachelor of Physics Programs) and the Quantum Mechanics' course taught only on the Bachelor of Physics Program. The comparison between the contents taught on the Modern Physics course and the contents taught on the Quantum Mechanics' course, was based on the most used books in the teaching of both disciplines in Brazil. We also discuss the importance of the Modern Physics course to future physics teachers. in Physics.
