Extract
Millimetre-wave spectral lines show a wide range of linewidths, from 0.1 km s-1 in dark clouds to 30 km s-1 in some massive molecular clouds; at 100 GHz the corresponding Doppler widths range from 33 kHz to 10 MHz. SiO masers at 86 GHz have two lines typically 1 MHz wide spaced by 6 MHz. For most applications a resolution of 100 or 250 kHz is suitable.
