Scientific paper

The form of the density power spectrum is studied. The relationship between the visibility and the properties of density turbulence is discussed. Observational determinations of the power-law index of the interstellar density power spectrum are presented. An inner scale is derived, and the effect of an inner scale in the interstellar plasma turbulence is examined. It is concluded that the host plasma for the density irregularities must be similar to the warm ionized medium in the Mckee-Ostriker model (1979) of the interstellar medium or the low-density envelopes of H II regions.
