New study reveals microstructure of the interstellar medium from pulsar scintillation
The reserchers employed radio observations of pulsars to detect these complex microstructures using the interstellar scintillation effect. This study utilized the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) in China and ...The microstructure of the interstellar medium has been a hot topic of research in modern astrophysics. The turbulence and small-scale structures within the interstellar medium have profound implications for understanding the structure an...
