[Les] mesures à distance [...] n'intéressent évidemment que les températures de surface des corps, elles sont à la base de la télédétection pour ce qui concerne l'analyse du rayonnement infrarouge émis par les corps et dont l'intensité est fonction de la température de surface de celui-ci (infrarouge thermique). On peut également citer la mesure de la température de surface à partir des phénomènes de luminescence où l'on utilise la sensibilité thermique des émissions dans le visible de minces couches luminescentes disposées sur cette surface. 1, record 1, French, - temp%C3%A9rature%20de%20surface%20des%20corps
