The typical fig-ure of merit for a capacitor at high frequencies combines these two effects as effective series resistance (ESR).Figure 2 shows how the values of reactance, Q and ESR vary with frequency. This data is for a Murata 100 pF chip capacitor in an 0805 package.
First series resonance (FSR) and first parallel resonance (FPR): These are the lowest rated frequency value at which S11 and S21 are rated for the capacitor in question. Here are two excellent sets of high frequency capacitors that are ideal for applications in the GHz range:
At low frequency, the impedance provided by the capacitor is dominant, and your capacitor will exhibit close to ideal behavior. At sufficiently high frequency, the ESL value takes over, and the impedance starts to appear inductive. This produces an effect known as self-resonance at just the right frequency.
Equivalent high frequency capacitor model. This means that the important characteristic distinguishing different capacitors for different frequency ranges is the capacitor’s self-resonant frequency. At this particular frequency, the capacitor will exhibit its minimum impedance and a very strong current response.
Capacitors can be low pass high pass filters because their impedance changes with the frequency of the input signal. If we create a voltage divider of 1 stable impedance element (resistor) and 1 variable impedance element (capacitor) we can filter out low frequency or high frequency input signals.
At sufficiently high frequency, the ESL value takes over, and the impedance starts to appear inductive. This produces an effect known as self-resonance at just the right frequency. Equivalent high frequency capacitor model.

Resistance of capacitors
A capacitor has an infinite resistance (well, unless the voltage gets so high it breaks down). The simplest capacitor is made from two parallel plates with nothing but space in between - as you can guess from its electronic symbol. In a DC circuit, a capacitor acts as an open circuit and does not permit current to pass. In an AC circuit a ...

When should I use a low ESR capacitor
When the AC source is low frequency (50 Hz, 60 Hz, 120 Hz...) the capacitors are physically large, and could tolerate high ESR (like, 1 ohm for a 1A supply with a 1000 uF filter capacitor). That''s because a one-amp ripple current only created one watt of heat, and a large (over a square inch of surface area) 1000uF capacitor can shed that heat.

Fundamentals of Passive Component Behavior at High Frequencies
Inductive reactance is near zero at low frequen-cies, increasing linearly with fre-quency. Thus, a resistor will see an increasing inductive reactance that is in series with its resistance. Rather that try to compensate for this reac-tance, the best approach is to make resistors with very low inductance, which is practical to do.

1.2: Passive components at high frequency
An ideal inductor, (L), has a parallel parasitic capacitance, (C_d), and the wire windings have some resistance (R_s). At low frequency, the inductor behaviour dominates as it has the lowest reactance, while at high frequency, the capacitor dominates. Thus, an inductor will show capacitive behavior at high frequencies.
