Short title	Hot source emitting infrared through gas to a receiver with absorption and reradiation.
Image title	A flame containing soot emits mainly infrared radiation (wavy arrows, about 1 to 100 micrometres). The radiation crosses a cloud of participating gas: one ray is absorbed in the gas, one is weakened, one passes. The gas re-emits radiation in other directions. The rays reach a receiving wall. A note states that no medium is needed because radiation also crosses a vacuum.
