Derivation of Planck by pauljkt1 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Planck derived his radiation law by assuming that: [1] A blackbody cavity is in thermal equilibrium at temperature T; [2] The radiation field can be viewed as a superposition of standing electromagnetic waves; and [3] Each wave mode can be described by a quantized harmonic oscillator with energy levels that are integer multiples of hv. This led to Planck
