DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mr. RUDNITSKIY\, Alexey (ASC LPI)\nOn behalf of the 
 Radioastron pulsar group this report presents an overview of the studies w
 hich were done with the Radioastron space radio telescope during the first
  four years of mission operation\, including the early and key science pro
 grams. Space-VLBI observations of pulsars with the highest angular resolut
 ion revealed the new interstellar plasma scattering effects\, such as\, re
 solving the substructure in the scattering disk. Diameters of scattering d
 isks were measured for several pulsars and the distances to the effective 
 scattering screens were estimated. Layers of scattering plasma were detect
 ed to be located relatively close to the Sun (10-100 pc). Such layers migh
 t be responsible for fast flux variations of compact extragalactic radio s
 ources. A new insight on the interstellar scattering was demonstrated by s
 tudy of the instantaneous visibilities which were measured with the Space-
 VLBI observations of giant pulses from the Crab pulsar.\n\nhttps://events.
