Abstract
Recent theoretical results for line integrated measurements of phase and amplitude perturbations introduced on a laser beam probing a randomly fluctuating plasma are compared with phase scintillation data obtained on the LT-4 tokamak. It is shown that an estimate of the transverse velocity profile along the line-of-sight can be obtained from single shot measurements of the phase perturbations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
