candle (international) [c]
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity based on a specific standard of candle power, defined as the intensity of light emitted by a particular substance (usually spermaceti oil) under standard conditions.
Historyandorigin: This unit was originally based on the light emitted by a standard candle made from spermaceti, but it was later redefined for standardization purposes.
CurrentUse: Historically used to measure the brightness of light sources. It has largely been replaced by the modern unit of luminous intensity, the candela, in the SI system.
funfact: The international candle was one of the first standardized units for measuring light intensity and played a key role in the development of modern photometry.
candle (German) [c (German)]
Definition: A unit of luminous intensity used in Germany, similar to the international candle but based on a different standard of measurement.
Historyandorigin: The German candle was defined in the 19th century and based on the light emitted by a standard candle made from stearin.
CurrentUse: Once used in Germany for measuring light intensity, it has been replaced by the modern candela in the International System of Units.
funfact: The German candle had slightly different luminous intensity compared to the international candle, which led to confusion in international comparisons before standardization.
