High-medium slit resolutions for 18um

Same echelle voltage/angle as 4th order Q-branch of C2H2 except with filter=18a instead of 14um. There are 3 H2O lines in 3rd order near 520cm^-1. All images were taken with the gas cell rinsed and continually pumping.

Same measurement procedure as for high-medium slit resolutions at 14um. As there are only 3 lines available, I list the median of the  FWHM from Gaussian fits to the 20 innermost columns of each line.




Line 1: 547.82
Line 2: 546.30
Line 3: 545.30

For reference, the widths of the different slits in pixels are:

17.5 km/s => 45.72
6.0 km/s => 15.7 pixels
4.5 km/s => 11.76 pixels
3.5 km/s => 9.16 pixels
2.68 km/s => 7.0 pixels
2 km/s => 5.24 pixels
1.5 km/s => 3.92 pixels
