Is it just me or is science getting pretty absurd. Photons having a temperature!?!?
Can the temperature of a photon be measured? If the sun was cold but emitted the same amount of light, would it heat us less? If this is so, then could you use light as a heat sink? Can you get 2 light sources and heat one and cool the other and detect a difference in the light? I think the answer to all of these questions is no, but if it is yes then that would be fascinating. In what way is light changed by being emitted by something hot?
