PPTA DM Variations You et al., MNRAS, 2007

DM Structure Function Measure of turbulent power at different scales Expected to be exponential with spectral index α = 5/3 for Kolmogorov model

Typical SF You et al., MNRAS, 2007

Kolmogorov Slope (1000 days ≈ 7.8 AU) You et al., MNRAS, 2007

Large Inner Scale (10 days ≈ 0.4 AU) You et al., MNRAS, 2007

PSR J SF 1000 days ≈ 61 AU You et al., MNRAS, 2007

0437 DM Variations ~500 days ≈ 30 AU

Scintillation & TOAs PSR J MHz 2 hours, 8sec integrations TOA residual Signal-to-Noise -1

Scintillation/TOA - Simulations Coles et al., in preparation

Grad DM - Simulations Coles et al., in preparation

Correlation - Real Data Coles et al., in preparation

Conclusions PTAs need high timing precision.  ISM effects need to be corrected  Most easily measured at low frequencies  ISM: an interesting place that keeps surprising…
