In this paper we provide an analytical characterization of the Fourier spectrum of the solutions of quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems, which completes the Nekhoroshev theorem and looks particularly suitable to describe resonant motions. We also discuss the application of the result to the analysis of numerical and experimental data. The comparison of the rigorous theoretical estimates with numerical results shows a quite good agreement. It turns out that an observation of the spectrum for a relatively short time scale (of order $1/\sqrt{\varepsilon}$, where $\varepsilon$ is a natural perturbative parameter) can provide information on the behavior of the system for the much larger Nekhoroshev times.
Keywords: Nekhoroshev theorem, Fourier analysis, resonances, local chaotic motions..
