The art of using the spectroscope; that branch of science which involves the use of the spectroscope. In mod. use, the investigation of spectra by any of various instruments.
3 a. The coloured band into which a beam of light is decomposed by means of a prism or diffraction grating. Also, a dark band containing bright lines produced similarly; such a (coloured or dark) band, or the pattern of lines in it, as characteristic of the light source; hence, the pattern of absorption or emission of light or other electromagnetic radiation over any range of wavelengths exhibited by a body or substance.
