characteristick x-ray are those which is emmited by the electron of target atom due to transition from higher energy state to lower energy state,while continuous x-ray are those which is emmited by the atoms present in a material.

What two sources of continuous spectra will be use in emission spectroscopy?

Two common sources of continuous spectra used in emission spectroscopy are the electrical discharge lamps and the incandescent lamps. Electrical discharge lamps, such as the mercury vapor lamps, produce continuous spectra due to the excitation of atoms or molecules in the gas discharge. Incandescent lamps, on the other hand, produce continuous spectra because of the thermal emission from the hot filament.
