Description
Hello
I was wondering whether one could get the chemical element names (atoms, molecules, both neutral and/or ionized) from the methods **find_lines_threshold** and/or **find_lines_derivative**.
e.g.
```
lines = find_lines_threshold(spec1d_sub, noise_factor=2.5)
lines
```
One gets a QTable as shown below and I can identify some elements behind the identified lines.

Many thanks in advance

Research direction
Start by reading the find_lines_threshold and find_lines_derivative entry points and reproduce the QTable output described in the issue. Determine whether chemical-element identification for neutral or ionized atoms and molecules is in scope, then define and document the expected result and validation before implementation.
