heat is energy in transit....that is the definition i guess....and heat corresponds to a temp. difference....i dnt think there is a temp. diff. of any kind here

the wavelength of radiation is the characteristic of electron transition from a definite shell to another definite shell.
heat is a form of energy having wavelength
"700 nm-1 mm"
and the wavelenth can be calculated by Balmer-Rydberg equation.
