Hi! I hope this is the right place for this question. I have a plot of mJy vs frequency and I want to fit a blackbody plot to it. I just don't know how to convert the y-axis correctly to use the formula for the fit. Any help is appreciated.

Can you provide more information and show your data? Is this for schoolwork?
 
So I need to fit a blackbody to any set of 4 points. I am working with a professor on this (but he is not available this week so I can't talk to him for a few more days) but it is not an assignment (I do it outside the school work).
