Absorption Line Spectroscopy

Absorption Line Spectroscopy is a spectroscopic method within stellar spectroscopy that identifies and analyzes the dark spectral lines formed when atoms or ions in a star's outer layers absorb specific wavelengths of light, distinguishing it from emission-based techniques by its reliance on the attenuation of continuous background radiation to infer elemental composition, temperature, and motion.
