21 Dec 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | University of Sydney, Oberlin College | Abstract: | We have measured the properties of the diffractive scintillation toward the Vela pulsar under the extremely strong scattering conditions encountered at 660 MHz. We obtain a decorrelation bandwidth of $
u_d = 244 pm 4$ Hz and diffractive decorrelation timescale of $t_{
m diff} = 3.3pm 0.3$ s. Our measurement of the modulation indices $m=0.87pm 0.003pm 0.05$ and $m=0.93pm 0.03 pm 0.05$ (one for each polarization stream), are at variance with the modulation index of the Vela pulsar obtained at 2.3 GHz by Gwinn et al. (1997) {it if} the deviation from a modulation index of unity is ascribed to a source size effect. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0001368 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
