Workspace.sunBlackbody(self, sun: pyarts.arts.Sun | None = None, frequency_grid: pyarts.arts.AscendingGrid | None = None, radius: pyarts.arts.Numeric | None = None, distance: pyarts.arts.Numeric | None = None, temperature: pyarts.arts.Numeric | None = None, latitude: pyarts.arts.Numeric | None = None, longitude: pyarts.arts.Numeric | None = None) None

Set sun to blackbody.

Note

For a Sol-like sun there are huge differences in the UV-range between the actual sun spectrum and the blackbody spectrum with the effective temperature of the sun. The blackbody sun strongly overestimates the UV radiation.
