Spectroscopic Analysis of Gas Mixtures

Spectroscopic Analysis of Gas Mixtures presents the methods applied in spectral analysis of gas mixtures.

The book is concerned primarily with emission analysis. It offers an extensive description of photoelectric procedures and quantitative methods of fast gas analysis; spectroscopic procedures based on absorption in the ultraviolet and infrared regions of the spectrum; and the optico-acoustic method.

Physicists will find the text very informative.
