The blackbody radiation in a D-dimensional universes

The blackbody radiation is analyzed in a universe with D spatial dimensions. Using the classical electrodynamics suited to the a D-dimensional universe and employing hyperspherical coordinates, the spectral energy density as well as the total energy density are calculated as function of the dimensionality of the universe. The Wien's displacement law and the Stefan-Boltzmann law are properly generalized.
