Radiance definition geometry

Fig. 1. Geometry of the radiance definition: - radiant flux which propagates within an elementary solid angle, , about the direction of observation, ξ; dA - elementary area of the radiation source with its normal, n; dAp = dA cosθ - projection of the elementary area onto a plane perpendicular to the direction of observation, ξ.
