Electron Density Fluctuations

Radio signals from pulsars are significantly affected by propagation effects such as dispersion, faraday rotation and scintillations in the interstellar medium (ISM). In this paper, I review some aspects of our understanding about pulsars and interstellar scintillations (ISS). The study of pulsar scintillation has dual benefits in that it allows us to learn about the properties of the ISM using pulsars as probes, as well as to infer some properties about pulsars, using the ISM as a tool. Both these aspects are addressed in this paper. The main emphasis is on recent developments in the following topics : (i) the shape of the spectrum of electron density fluctuations in the interstellar medium (ii) the distribution of scattering plasma in the local ISM and (iii) resolving pulsar emission regions using ISS.
