Özet
The scale of effective temperatures Teff is based on observed absolute radiation temperatures Tr, which are defined by Planck's radiation law where TAu designs the absolute temperature of the gold point. A relative scale of radiation temperatures can be derived from spectrophotometric comparisons with a standard star. The absolute calibration of the standard star (α Lyr or Sun) demands a careful comparison with a standard radiation source of well known spectral energy distribution (Black Body or Synchrotron). With ground-based observations atmospheric extinction is to be taken into account; with extraterrestrial observations detectors may be used which are absolutely calibrated in a radiation laboratory under space conditions.
