Analytical expressions for Fresnel volumes and interface Fresnel zones of seismic body waves. Part 2: Transmitted and converted waves. Head waves

Michal Kvasnicka & Vlastislav Cerveny

Summary

Fresnel volumes and interface Fresnel zones of transmitted and head waves are studied. The relation derived for transmitted waves may also be used for converted reflected waves. Considerable attention is devoted to the penetration of Fresnel volumes across structural interfaces, particularly for head waves.

Keywords

Fresnel volumes, interface Fresnel zones, seismic body waves, seismic ray methods, first arrival travel times
