Planck power
Encyclopedia
The Planck energy divided by the Planck time
is the Planck power, equal to about 3.62831 × 1052 W
. This is an extremely large unit; even gamma-ray bursts, the most luminous phenomena known, have output on the order of 1 × 1045 W, less than one ten-millionth of the Planck power.
In terms of the fundamental constants of physics, it is given by
Planck time
