refractive interstellar scintillation
(RISS, refractive scintillation)
(refraction of star light by the ISM)
Refractive interstellar scintillation (RISS)
is scintillation (twinkling) of stars due to refraction
in the interstellar medium, particularly, discontinuities in the
ionization. It has been studied through analysis
of pulsar timing.
