Pure-radiation constant-pressure heat-capacity singularity

ID: pure-radiation-constant-pressure-heat-capacity-singularity

For pure blackbody radiation, depends only on temperature. Constant pressure therefore fixes temperature, so a usual finite constant-pressure temperature derivative is unavailable. In the material gas-radiation limit the specific-heat ratio diverges, although all three stellar adiabatic exponents approach . The radiation index is an adiabatic pressure-volume response, not a finite heat-capacity ratio.
