Planck power

Planck power

The Planck energy divided by the Planck time is the Planck power, equal to about 3.62831 × 1052 W. This is an impractically large unit; even gamma-ray bursts, the most luminous phenomena known, have output on the order of 1 × 1045 W, less than one ten-millionth of the Planck power---and indeed, exceeding 1/4 of the Planck power will produce an event horizon under general relativityFact|date=May 2008.

In terms of the fundamental constants of physics, it is given by:Planck power = frac{c^5}{G}.
