The Doschek ''et al.'' article states a single number, but that is based on comparisons with older data. However, it is still consistent with the numbers derived from comparing the pre-launch laboratory EIS calibration data with the on-orbit EIS data by Brown ''et al.'' (2008). The Brown ''et al.'' numbers are inferred widths, but the reasoning is pretty logical; the fact that the Doschek ''et al.'' (2007) number falls within that range of 0.054nbsp;— 0.057nbsp;Å is comforting.

In summary, Brown ''et al.'' (2008) infer an instrumental width of 0.054 Å in the short-wavelength channel (170 —
210 Å) and 0.057 Å for the long-wavelength channel (250 — 290 Å)
In summary, Brown ''et al.'' (2008) assume a Gaussian instrumental line profile, and they infer an instrumental width of 0.054 Å in the short-wavelength channel (170 — 210 Å) and 0.057 Å for the long-wavelength channel (250 — 290 Å).
__NOTE!__ As Céline Boutry points out, this is the FWHM of the instrumental width (not the Gaussian width σ as previously incorrectly stated here).
