A link for more on optical pyrometry.
Optical Pyrometers How They Work and Who Still Makes Them
A lot of articles talk about a black body. Radiation from a black body is at emissivity of 1 so correction is not needed. A black body can be a cavity as in a closed furnace at uniform temperature. If, for instance, the crucible is covered but with a peep hole, then the radiation is close to being from a black body.
