Determine the dispersion in mm for a given wavelength ECH_DISP
Use the grating equation to calculate the echelle beta angle at the given wavelength in the given order. Then calculate it at the point where the dispersion is by definition zero. Knowing the focal length of the camera, calculate the dispersion in mm.
