continuous spectrum
A spectrum in which wavelengths (and wavenumbers and frequencies) are represented by the continuum of real numbers (or a portion thereof) rather than by a discrete sequence of numbers. A continuous function on an infinite interval, even though the function is nonzero over only a finite interval, must be represented by the Fourier transform rather than by Fourier series, and the resulting spectrum will be continuous. See also discrete spectrum.
