Abstract
THE term spectrum analysis was originally used to denote the analysis of substances by means of their spectra, and it would probably still be interpreted in this sense by most experimental spectro-scopists. To those not accustomed to this usage, however, it seems to connote the analysis of the structure of a spectrum, for example, its resolution into series or multiplets.
