Hi,

Although I would like to the check all the threads that are being posted, I am particularly interested in a topics that discusses only about spectroscopy. Is there a way that I could receive emails of alert if the topic itself is being asked?

Not at this time. One option would be to search for the keyword in our tagging system periodically, but it relies on members actually using the tag.
