| Summary | 'Seismic True-Amplitude Imaging' is a ray-theoretical exposition of seismic imaging processes, unapologetic in that it bristles at any suggestion that ray theory is not wave theory. This attitude is justified in part by being right - ray theory does come from an asymptotic approximation to the wave equation - and by the fact that similar asymptotic assumptions tend to sneak like viruses into so-called full-wave-theoretical processes as well. On other issues, the text is more accommodating. After noting that the original Kirchhoff diffraction integral was devised only for forward-wave propagation, the authors concede that the term Kirchhoff migration has passed into common usage, and they learn to live with it. |
