Abstract

Diffractions always need more advertizing. It is true that conventional seismic processing and migration is usually successful in using specular reflections to estimate subsurface velocities and reconstruct the geometry of strong and continuous reflectors. At the same time, correct identification of geological discontinuities, such as faults, pinch-outs and small-size scattering objects, is an important problem in the interpretation of seismic data. It is precisely the seismic response from these structural features that is encoded in the diffracted wavefield. Diffractions, however, are typically lost during the conventional processing sequence.
