    One may assume that the planet radiates energy like a blackbody at some temperature according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law. Thermal equilibrium exists when the power supplied by the star is equal to the power emitted by the planet. The temperature at which this balance occurs is the planetary equilibrium temperature.
