;- Constants are from "The Fundamental Physical Constants",
;- Cohen, E. R. and B. N. Taylor, Physics Today, August 1993.

;- Planck constant (Joule second)
h = 6.6260755e-34

;- Speed of light in vacuum (meters per second)
c = 2.9979246e+8

;- Boltzmann constant (Joules per Kelvin)      
k = 1.380658e-23

;- Derived constants      
c1 = 2.0 * h * c * c
c2 = (h * c) / k
                  
;- Convert wavenumber to inverse meters
vs = 1.0e+2 * v
      
;- Compute Planck radiance
return, 1.0e5 * (c1 * vs^3) / (exp(c2 * vs / t) - 1.0)
