Luminous means giving off light.
Some materials that give off light are phosphorescent such as polycrystalline inorganic zinc sulphide and alkaline earth sulphides; some are radioactive such as radium and tritium.

It is luminous

What is luminous materials?
Luminous materials are materials that give off light.
What is the meaning of luminous materials?
Luminous means giving off light. Any material becomes luminous if sufficiently heated.

What are the only type of materials that S waves can travel thought?
Luminous
What is the meaning of luminous object?
Non luminous materials do not emit light that we can see. Most elements that are not radioactive fall into this category. Non luminous bodies are those which do not produce their own light. For example: moon etc.
What are luminous and non luminous materials?
Luminous means "giving off light", or glows in the dark (since luminosity is detected by the eyes, it usually refers to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum). Many materials emit a wide range of radiation other than visible light, which is why some radioactive materials were used as glow in the dark paints, and why the Curies focused on a particular radioactive isotope (because it glowed in the dark). Some materials can even store energy from visible light and emit it later, which is why some of my luminous objects have to be "charged" by a light bulb or the sun. Some chemical combinations can emit light for a while, such as the stuff in lightning bugs, which we can replicate in production lines to make glow sticks. Non luminous materials do not emit light that we can see. Most elements that are not radioactive fall into this category.
