colour.plotting.plot_blackbody_spectral_radiance#

colour.plotting.plot_blackbody_spectral_radiance(temperature: float = 3500, cmfs: MultiSpectralDistributions | str | Sequence[MultiSpectralDistributions | str] = 'CIE 1931 2 Degree Standard Observer', blackbody: str = 'VY Canis Major', **kwargs: Any) → Tuple[Figure, Axes][source]#

Plot the spectral radiance of a blackbody at the specified temperature.

Parameters:

temperature (float) – Blackbody temperature.
cmfs (MultiSpectralDistributions | str | Sequence[MultiSpectralDistributions | str]) – Standard observer colour matching functions used for computing the spectrum domain and colours. cmfs can be of any type or form supported by the colour.plotting.common.filter_cmfs() definition.
blackbody (str) – Blackbody name.
kwargs (Any) – {colour.plotting.artist(), colour.plotting.plot_single_sd(), colour.plotting.render()}, See the documentation of the previously listed definitions.

Returns:

Current figure and axes.

Return type:

tuple
