When an optical spectroscopic transition is measured, either by emission or absorption, a so-called lineshape of given intensity and frequency dependence is obtained. For any spectroscopy there exist quantum mechanical or other basic connections to all of the experimental parameters that determine the lineshape. List these experimental parameters and explain how they are related to the previously mentioned connections.

Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to determine the amount of aluminum in a sample of sunscreen. A blank solution was measured seven times to determine the detection and quantitation limits of the spectrometer. The blank readings were as follows: 0.0086, 0.0107, 0.0095, 0.0103, 0.0113, 0.0104, and 0.0094 AU. Determine the signal at the detection limit and the signal at the limit of quantitation for this method.
