GOPH 687 - Theory Of Seismic Imaging - Fall 2009

The theories of wave propagation in acoustic and elastic media are used to develop the major algorithms used in seismic imaging (migration). Green's theorem, Huygen's principle, Kirchhoff diffraction theory, raytracing, wavetracking, multidimensional Fourier analysis, and Radon transforms are explored. Note: Credit for both Geophysics 699.04 and 687 will not be allowed.
This course may not be repeated for credit.
