Hey everyone,

Over the past few days I have been having trouble with finding research for my optics project.

The topic I chose was supposed to be the physics behind how astronomer's and astrophysics measure the Spectrum of the Sun ans specifically the mathematics/physics behind the spectroscopy they use for our sun and others. According to my professor is called like "Ascell spectroscopy" with him pronouncing the "Ascell" like the phrase "a-shell". After 2-3 day of searching WebofScience, Galelio, Google Scholar, and even Wikipedia for this term, I come up with so little information that I think I have somehow completely butcher the spelling of "Ascell Spectroscopy"


So if you guys could help me figure out the correct spelling of this word it would help out a lot. Alternatively if you guys have the current name(s) of the specific spectroscopy(s) we use to measure the Sun that would help also.
