[edit] Incorrect History
To all: the history presented in the previous version of this article is widely reproduced in physics textbooks, but it happens to be wrong. Historians of physics noticed this almost 50 years ago, but the textbooks just haven't caught up. I've added a link to an article in Physics World that gets it right - please look at it before reverting the article.
- In that case, you might need to clarify black body too, since that says that the problem was solved by Planck. --Heron 21:10, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
