Abstract
The finite element solution of Helmholtz equation is dispersive and the exi stent a posteriori error estimators underestimate the pollution error impli ed by this phenomenon. In this paper a new type of residual estimator for t he Helmholtz operator is proposed and tested on a one-dimensional model pro blem. The numerical results show that the error is correctly estimated but new difffculties appear in the exact evaluation of problem dependent consta nts.
