Measuring the Size of the Vela Pulsar’s Radio Emission Region

Measuring the Size of the Vela Pulsar’s Radio Emission Region

We describe the expected distribution of intensity for a scintillating source of finite size observed through a scattering medium, including systematic and instrumental effects. We describe measurements of the size of the Vela pulsar, using this technique.
