Let two peaks of equal height in a mass spectrum at masses m and m - Δm be separated by a valley which at its lowest point is just 10% of the height of either peak. For similar peaks at a mass exceeding m , let the height of the valley at its lowest point be more (by any amount) than 10% of either peak. Then the resolution (10% valley definition) is m / Δm. The ratio m /Δm should be given for a number of values of m. |
