Investigating Extreme Scattering Events by Volumetric Ray-tracing

Extreme scattering events (ESEs) are observed as dramatic (>50%) drops in flux density that occur over an extended period of weeks to months. Discrete plasma lensing structures are theorized to scatter the radio waves produced by distant sources such as pulsars, causing the signature decrease in...
