Analyzing photographically recorded atomic emission spectra using an automated densitometer
This report describes a computer-controlled densitometer and software designed for qualitative and semiquantitative analyses of photographically recorded atomic emission spectra. The instrument provides a number of operational features and unique capabilities for spectrochemical analyses. The purpose of this research was the evaluation of the automated densitometer system and computer algorithms for identifying and measuring atomic emission spectra from photographs. 11 refs., 10 figs., 5 tabs.
