Pulsar scintillation studies with LOFAR I. The census [PDF]
Interstellar scintillation (ISS) of pulsar emission can be used both as a probe of the ionized interstellar medium (IISM) and cause corruptions in pulsar timing experiments.

A Multi‐Purpose Heliophysics L4 Mission
Abstract The Earth‐Sun Lagrangian point 4 is a meta‐stable location at 1 AU from the Sun, 60° ahead of Earth's orbit. It has an uninterrupted view of the solar photosphere centered on W60, the Earth's nominal magnetic field connection to the Sun. Such a mission on its own would serve as a solar remote sensing observatory that would oversee the entire ...

Scintillation Arc from FRB 20220912A [PDF]
We present the interstellar scintillation analysis of fast radio burst (FRB) 20220912A during its extremely active episode in 2022 using data from the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST).

Directionality of the Martian Surface Radiation and Derivation of the Upward Albedo Radiation
Abstract Since 2012 August, the Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD) on the Curiosity rover has been characterizing the Martian surface radiation field which is essential in preparation for future crewed Mars missions. RAD observed radiation dose is influenced by variable topographical features as the rover traverses through the terrain.

Interstellar Scintillation of PSR J0437−4715 on Two Scales? [PDF]
Aims.We sought to determine the scale of scintillation in the interstellar plasma of PSR J0437−4715. Methods.We used the Very Long Baseline Array to obtain scintillation amplitude and phase data, from dynamic spectra at 327 MHz. Results.

INVESTIGATION OF THE IONIZED COMPONENT OF THE LOCAL INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM
Based upon numerous observational data of variability in extragalactic radiosources of the southern sky at low frequences the possibility of obtaining information on ionized component structure in the Local Interstellar Medium (LISM) is investigate.

Interstellar Scintillation of Pulsar B0809+74 [PDF]
Weak interstellar scintillations of pulsar B0809+74 were observed at two epochs using a 30m EISCAT antenna at 933 MHz. These have been used to constrain the spectrum, the distribution and the transverse velocity of the scattering plasma with respect to the local standard of rest (LSR).

Electronic spectroscopy of cold cations in a 22-pole trap by indirect methods [PDF]
The confining capabilities of a 22-pole ion trap have been employed to mea- sure electronic spectra of cations of astrophysical relevance. The ion trap sits on the head of a closed cycle cryostat, enabling collisional cooling of the confined ions with

Search for Turbulent Gas through Interstellar Scintillation [PDF]
AbstractStars twinkle because their light propagates through the atmosphere. The same phenomenon is expected when the light of remote stars crosses a Galactic—disk or halo—refractive medium such as a molecular cloud. We present the promising results of a test performed with the ESO–NTT, and consider its potential.

Asymmetry function of interstellar scintillations of pulsars
A new method for separating intensity variations of a source's radio emission having various physical natures is proposed. The method is based on a joint analysis of the structure function of the intensity variations and the asymmetry function, which is a generalization of the asymmetry coefficient and characterizes the asymmetry of the distribution ...
