《光譜學(xué)雜志》發(fā)表的論文報告了光譜學(xué)在所有學(xué)科的理論和應(yīng)用，包括生物學(xué)、化學(xué)、工程、醫(yī)學(xué)、材料科學(xué)、物理學(xué)和空間科學(xué)。文章可能有助于基礎(chǔ)研究，或高度應(yīng)用，必須報告重要的實驗結(jié)果或與新方法和儀器的開發(fā)有關(guān)。所有的光譜技術(shù)都在雜志的范圍內(nèi)。除了最初的研究外，《光譜學(xué)雜志》還發(fā)表了重點評論文章，這些文章審查了技術(shù)的現(xiàn)狀，確定了新的趨勢，并提出了未來發(fā)展領(lǐng)域的方向。

Journal of Spectroscopy publishes papers that report the theory and application of spectroscopy across all disciplines, including biology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, materials science, physics, and space science. Articles may contribute to fundamental research, or be highly applied, and must report important experimental results or relate to the development of new methods and instrumentation. All spectroscopic techniques lie within the scope of the journal.As well as original research, the Journal of Spectroscopy also publishes focused review articles that examine the state of the art, identify emerging trends, and suggest future directions for developing fields.
