Scintillation-induced variability in radio absorption spectra against extragalactic sources

Spectral features absorbed against some radio quasars exhibit ~50 mJy variations, with the lines varying both relative to the continuum and, when several lines are present, even relative to one another. We point out that such variability can be expected as a consequence of refractive scintillation c...
