Lumos Solem is the incantation of a spell that produces a beam of light. It is possible that the quality of the light is on the warmer solar end of the spectrum; considering the known uses that the spell has been put to, it is not that much of a stretch to presume that the spell is used to conjure sunlight.

Etymology

Derived from two words; the Latin lumen, meaning "light," and the Latin solis, meaning "of the sun."
