What are some luminous objects?

YOU! Really, you are actually radiating light as you read this, though mostly in the submillimeter range (THz) and FIR. Any object with a high enough temperature to transfer photons with other matter is technically luminous, though not always in the visible spectrum and not always according to the blackbody radiation curve. Though if you're speaking more colloquially you may mean luminous as in "Radiating Photons that react with the rods & cones in primate eyes", that is to say luminous within the human visible spectrum, In that case anything that lights up is "luminous"; from the sun and other stars to bioluminescent algae and fishies to hot plasmas like a candle, a campfire, or a forest fire to LEDs, Lasers, Light bulbs and cold plasmas like the pixels in Plasma TV's.


What is the difference between luminous object and illumines the object?

Luminous objects give off light whereas illuminated objects relfect light, and thus appear to produce light. For example: A lightbulb is luminous because it gives off light whereas the moon is illuminated because it reflects the light of the sun.A luminous object shines with its own light; it produces its own light, like the sun. An illuminated object is lit by some outside source, like a light bulb or something lit up because your car's headlights fall on it at night, such as your garage door.
