Description:
Leslie's cube (named after Sir John Leslie who experimented with radiant heat in 1804) consists of a cubical vessel with different sides - one of highly polished metal, the other two painted black and white, and another side painted with aluminum. When the cube is filled with boiling water, the radiation is greatest from the black side, and negligible from the shiny side.
