I understand perfectly well that you aren't talking about heat radiation. I also understand that the second law of thermodynamics doesn't limit itself to heat. The statement says that heat will not transfer from cool to warm then goes on, in a new sentence to say that energy won't transfer from cool to warm. There is not a single bit of observable, repeatable evidence that proves otherwise.
The second law of thermodynamics is stated in absolute terms because it is an absolute law. You may believe that statistically you can manage to get around the law some of the time but you can't show a shred of real evidence that proves you can any of the time.
I don't do parlor tricks, espeically when they serve no useful purpose. If you are curious, here is the formula. Ep = 1.24/wl eV
And again, the second law states that energy won't spontaneously move from cool to warm. Are you going to tell me that photon radiation is not energy?
Once more, the second law speaks in absolute terms. It isn't a statistical phenomenon, it is a law of nature. It is not possible for energy to move from cool towards warm unless some work is done to accomplish the task.
I didn't say that it shuns aiming at a hotter object, I said that it simply can't. Photons don't "think" about moving from warm towards cool any more than a golf ball "thinks" about which way it will go when it is struck. It moves in the direction the laws of physics demand. A photon can no more emit towards warm than a golf ball can decide to stick to the clubhead when struck.
Not at all and that silly statement is in reality, a statement of your own misunderstanding. Backradiation, and the so called greenhouse effect have nothing to do with objects in equilibrium so I am not going off on that tangent again. If you can't stick to backradiation and the so called greenhouse effect, then simply say so and move along.
