Abstract

The use of the flame as an excitation source in analytical spectroscopy is associated with the origin of spectroscopy. Herschel (1848), while studying the emission of different salts introduced into a flame, made the following observations one and a half centuries after the discovery of the spectrum by Newton: "Thus it will be found that, in general, Salts of soda give a copious and purely homogeneous yellow.
