§1 · classical energy allocation

Follow all nine sections: the classical allocation problem, the Wien entropy calculation, independent configurations, the heuristic move, and three energy-transfer applications.

Newly authored explanatory preview in modern notation; editorial and physics review are pending. The introduction and all nine numbered sections have explanatory treatments below, but this is not a German transcription, an aligned English translation, or a complete critical edition. Source faces remain in preparation. The headings and argument units are editorial, not a verified paragraph-by-paragraph source inventory.

A finite window cannot cure an infinite total

At a positive temperature, classical allocation assigns more energy as the frequency cutoff rises. Its all-frequency total has no finite value; the plotting cutoff is not a physical explanation.
