Spectroscopic observations refer to the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, typically by analyzing the emitted or absorbed light from objects such as stars, galaxies, and planets. Spectroscopy allows scientists to determine the chemical composition, temperature, density, and velocity of these objects by analyzing the unique patterns and wavelengths of light emitted or absorbed by their constituent elements. This research area plays a crucial role in modern astrophysics, planetary science, and other fields by providing valuable insights into the physical properties and behavior of celestial bodies in the universe.
