Because of the ongoing pandemic, output has declined below its long-run equilibrium. The government is then interested in pushing output back to its original level. Demonstrate what happens Using the Keynesian Cross and IS-LM Model, demonstrate how output and the real interest rate changes from the Short-run to the Long-run if the government implements policy that raises output back to its full-potential.

What are the quantum mechanisms behind the emission and absorption of thermal radiation at and below room temperature? If the relevant quantum state transitions are molecular (stretching, flexing and spin changes) how come the thermal spectrum is continuous? What about substances (such as noble gases) which don't form molecules, how do they emit or absorb thermal radiation? Is there a semi-classical mechanism (with the EM field treated classically) and also a deeper explanation using the full apparatus of QFT?
