OBS

On trouve le terme «spectroscopiste», qui désigne une personne dans les dictionnaires, mais il ne faut pas confondre les termes «spectroscopie» et «spectrographie». Quant à «spectrographe», il se rapporte à l'instrument (cf. UNIVE 15-245 et ENCLI 5-98). C'est pourquoi l'auteur de cette fiche a proposé le néologisme «spectrographiste».
