A possible explanation of the variation of the scattering index parameter
The scattering index parameter variation with galactic latitude and longitude is compared with interstellar medium absorption measurements and electron density variations. Results suggest that the existence of a three-phase structure for the interstellar medium may be responsible for the scattering...

| Zusammenfassung: | The scattering index parameter variation with galactic latitude and longitude is compared with interstellar medium absorption measurements and electron density variations. Results suggest that the existence of a three-phase structure for the interstellar medium may be responsible for the scattering index parameter's random variation, which is a possible indicator of the nature of the interstellar medium. |
