Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Rowan Morrell: It certainly gets a lot of search engine hits, so is a strong possibility.

disagree  Guenther Danzer: that's the translation for an "Emissions-Spektogramm"
12 mins
neutral  TonyTK: Not necessarily, Guenther - a "spectrograph" can be the instrument that produces "spectrograms" as well as a synonym for "spectrogram". Doesn't look right here, though.
