Abstract Radio images of the Galactic Center supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), are dominated by interstellar scattering. Previous studies Sgr have adopted an anisotropic Gaussian model for both intrinsic source and scattering, they extrapolated scattering using a purely λ 2 scaling to estimate properties. However, physically motivated models break all three these assumptions. They also predict that refractive effects will be significant, which been ignored in standard fitting...
