The capability of an optical system to distinguish different frequencies
The spectral resolution of a spectrograph, or, more generally, of a frequency spectrum, is a measure of its ability to resolve features in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is usually denoted by, and is closely related to the resolving power of the spectrograph, defined as where is the smallest difference in wavelengths that can be distinguished at a wavelength of .
