Imaging Resolution

The design of the instrument is such that the angular resolution for (isolated) point sources is about 2.5 (FWHM). The location of point sources can be done with an accuracy much better than this, however, depending on the strength of the source. As explained above (Section [*]), dithering is required for imaging more complex regions.
