It was incorrectly proposed by William Crookes as the operational principle behind his namesake tube. Svante Arrhenius believed that life on earth arose from organisms transported through the cosmos by this effect. It scales as the fourth power of the temperature according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, and helps balance gravity in a star. For a uniform source, it is given by one third times the total energy per unit volume within the appropriate space. The operating principle behind the "solar sail" concept, FTP, identify this force per unit area exerted by photons.
