Abstract
Quantitative predictions are made of the effects of randomness and dispersion on the spreading, attenuation, and modulation coefficient of a frequency-modulated wave packet propagating in a randomly stratified isotropic plasma. In the absence of random fluctuations, the recently reported findings of Millman and Bell are recovered.Keywords
