COMMENTS
Appears as a term in the Sakuma-Hattori equation for the electromagnetic signal from the thermal radiation emitted by an ideal black body of a given temperature.
It also appears in Planck's law when expressed in terms of the wavenumber. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 25 2021
The exact value, following the 2019 redefinition of SI units, is 272115870842319/18913000000000000. Hence, periodic with period 18912. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 25 2021
In natural (Planck) units this is 2*Pi = A019692. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 07 2021

FORMULA
c_2 = h*c/k where k is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, and k is the Boltzmann constant. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 25 2021
