Interstellar scintillation, AGN physics and the SKA
A large fraction of compact, extragalactic radio sources exhibit rapid variability at centimetre wavelengths as their radio emission is scattered by electron density fluctuations in the interstellar medium of the Galaxy. Next-generation wide-field radio telescopes will have to account for this in fo...
