Summary edit

Description
English:

Color emitted by a black body on a linear scale from 1934 K to 11074 K, given by Planck's Law, assuming a monitor properly calibrated to sRGB color space - D65 white point - 2.2 gamma.
It has been done with Microsoft Excel and Adobe Illustrator.

Every 0.08 mired, a sample was computed as follow :
Temperature (K) → Planck's law → CIE 2006 2° LMS color matching functions (1nm) → sRGB color space → Gamma 2.2 → SVG
Then the whole data set has been optimized in order to rely on gradient interpolation when no visible difference occured.

Special thanks to Mitchell Charity whose website guided me through some parts of the process.
