Green's function retrieval with Marchenko equations: A sensitivity analysis

Recent research showed that the Marchenko equation can be used to construct the Green’s function for a virtual source position in the subsurface. The method requires the reflection response at the surface and an estimate of the direct arrival of the wavefield, traveling from the virtual source location to the acquisition surface. In this paper,...

Coupled Marchenko equations for electromagnetic Green’s function retrieval and imaging

Recently a new theory has been developed to retrieve a wavefield generated by a source on the surface and recorded at a point in the subsurface without the need for a receiver at that subsurface location. The scheme is presented for three-dimensional wavefields. It decomposes the electromagnetic field in up- and downgoing electric fields and in...
