English - English
a quantitative measure of the ability of an optical instrument to produce separable images
ability of a telescope or microscope to differentiate between the main object and background objects
  A measure of the ability of a lens or optical system to form separate and distinct images of two objects with small angular separation (188)  Note: The resolving power of an optical system is ultimately limited by diffraction by the aperture   Thus, an optical system cannot form a perfect image of a point
the ability of a telescope to detect very small details and produce sharp images It depends on the diameter of the telescope's objective or the interferometer AND the wavelength of light used to observe, such that the more wavelengths that can be fit across the objective or interferometer, the sharper the image will be
ability of a telescope to separate fine details in an image
An expression of lens definition, usually stated as the maximum number of lines per millimeter that can be resolved (i e , seen as separate lines) in the image The resolving power of the lens varies with the contrast of the test chart and normally varies also with the orientation and position of the chart within the field
The ability of an experimental technique to distinguish between two genetic conditions (typically discussed when one condition is rare (e g recombination between very closely linked loci) and of particular interest)
The value where is the wavelength at some point in a spectrum and is the resolution at that wavelength
the ability of a microscope or telescope to measure the angular separation of images that are close together
1 = resolution, senses 1 and 2
