Evanescent Wave An evanescent wave is a near-field standing wave with an intensity that exhibits exponential decay with distance from the source at which the wave was formed. Wikipedia.org Decay Curve Amplitude ~ λ Offset Evanescent Wave Propagation wave Both propagation and evanescent waves are recorded Only propagation wave is recorded

Summary and Conclusions • In conventional seismic method, Relight formula controls the subsurface resolution • Evanescent wave can provide much higher resolution, but it exhibits exponential decay • Scatter points can convert Evanescent wave to propagation wave Decay Curve Amplitude ~ λ Offset Relight resolution Super resolution Propagation wave Relight resolution
