Radiation spectrum
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-013471
A distribution of the intensity of radiation as a function of its energy, wavelength, or frequency. This spectrum provides information about the types and energies of radiation emitted or absorbed by a substance. It is a fundamental tool in spectroscopy for identifying elements and characterizing atomic and molecular structures.
