Abstract

Researches on combustion and spectroscopy have been closely related since the very beginning at the time of Kirchhoff, Bunsen and Faraday. Since then every generation of spectroscopists gave its contribution to the understanding of combustion and used these sources for a deepening of their field. The purpose of this short paper is to highlight the actual relationship between these two fields of research.
