Abstract
Blackbody radiation is reconsidered using the counterpart of the Bose-Einstein distribution in the statistics arising from the Kaniadakis entropy. The generalized Planck radiation law is presented and compared to the usual law, to which it reduces in the limiting case . Effective Einstein's coefficients of emission and absorption are defined in terms of the Kaniadakis parameter . It is shown that the Kaniadakis statistics keeps unchanged the first Einstein coefficient while the second coefficient admits a generalized form within the present theoretical framework.
