Scientific paper

Photon counting and on-line digital analysis techniques are used to measure the intensity variance of stellar scintillation as a function of wavelength, with experimental results that are consistent with those predicted by the theory of Tatarski (1967). Time scales in the 1.7-10 msec range were observed, and the higher moments were consistently lower than those predicted by a log normal distribution.
