This is an old revision of the document!
In this lecture, I will give a quick introduction on the theory of scintillation from a thin screen, and how scintillation parameters relate to the geometry and velocity of the pulsar and screens.
Data: Have a handy copy of any archive that you wish to look at for scintillation. Remember it needs to have full time and frequency information, not t- or f-scrunched. There will be an example dynamic spectrum included in the github below
Code: Notebook, and some data are on github (I will be updating in the coming week): https://github.com/ramain/FundiScintTutorial2023
You will need psrchive to convert your archive into a dynamic spectrum (copy singularity image).
