A passive high-resolution series was a type of scan available to Starfleet engineers, used to scan interstellar artificial objects.
In 2367, Commander La Forge and Lieutenant Barclay first attempted to scan the alien probe using a passive high-resolution series in the electromagnetic band from aboard the Feynman. The only radiation detected from the probe was visual, from 4500 and 7000 Ångströms. (TNG: "The Nth Degree")
Ångström
An ångström (symbol Å) was a unit of length equal to 10−10 meters, used principally to express the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. It was equivalent to 0.1 nanometer.
Comparative units of length
While attempting to initialize the transporters aboard USS Voyager, Harry Kim aligned the confinement beam to 10 ångströms. (VOY: "Counterpoint")
A computer analysis of the Murasaki 312 yielded a radiation wave length of 370 ångströms. (TOS: "The Galileo Seven")
While analyzing the Cytherian probe, Reginald Barclay noted that the sensors were up visual wavelengths between 4,500 and 7,000 ångströms. (TNG: "The Nth Degree")
