Nomenclature
- Named for Joseph Stefan (March 24, 1835 – January 7, 1893), an Austrian physicist, mathematician and poet. He published nearly 80 scientific articles, mostly in the Bulletins of the Vienna Academy of Sciences, and he is best known for originating a physical power law in 1879 stating that the total radiation from a black body is proportional to the fourth power of its thermodynamic temperature.
- This name was approved in IAU Transactions XIIB (1964) for an uncertain formation at 94.0° W / 72.0° S thought to have been identified in the Rectified Lunar Atlas. Its assignment to the present (quite different) feature appears in Menzel, 1971. The shallow 70-km crater at the former location (between Boltzmann, Hausen and Doerfel) is now unnamed.
