MAX_DISPERSION


Usage

MAX_DISPERSION=_REAL

Description

The maximum dispersion to be searched by the automatic line identifier. Specified in unit-per-pixel.

Care should be taken to ensure that the specified dispersion range is sufficiently wide. If in doubt use a wider range than is probably needed. For example, if the actual dispersion is expected to be about 0.5, then a range specified by MIN_DISPERSION=0.2, MAX_DISPERSION=0.8 would be appropriate, whereas a range of 0.4 to 0.6 could possibly be too restrictive.

The normal wavelength units will be Angstroms, but alternative units may be used by providing an appropriate .ARC line list.
