What's the metal?

I don't know. There's not enough information to distinguish one from the others.

But you said there was.

They are good enough to distinguish the absorption spectrum of gold from silver. If their difference in emission spectrum of gold and silver is proportional to the difference in absorption spectrum, then cameras and TV screens should be able to distinguish them as well.

They can distinguish the difference in absorption spectrum.
Is this false?
Can't you see the difference?

We can all see the difference.
But that difference is between the reflectance spectra, not absorbance or emission..

I don't think any of us can see the relevance of your original pictures of the molten metals.

Any theories on why it is, and how it can be fixed? Can it be fixed? Social stigma, facing the abuser, guilt about something you did wrong, endless paperwork and hours into getting a conviction?

So, it's true at any temperature.
So that means it's true when the object is red hot- mainly emitting red and IR. And it's also true when the object is so hot that it's emitting blue light.

Your conclusion was, molten gold emits more blue light than  molten silver, because gold absorbs more blue light when they are cool.

You know it as well as me.

Doing the opposite, extending the fossils use, becomes a fast track to an extinction event.

and what is it we're doing, today?

That's from where I want us to ban fossils use, today. Just to give us a little more time to change the rest.

And the biggest problem there is time.
