Providing geophysicists with an in-depth understanding of the
theoretical and applied background for the seismic diffraction
method, Classical and Modern Diffraction Theory covers the history
and foundations of the classical theory and the key elements of the
modern diffraction theory. Chapters include an overview and a
historical review of classical theory, a summary of the
experimental results illustrating this theory, and key principles
of the modern theory of diffraction; the early cornerstones of
classical diffraction theory, starting from its inception in the
17th century and an extensive introduction to reprinted works of
Grimaldi, Huygens, and Young; details of the classical theory of
diffractions as developed in the 19th century and reprinted works
of Fresnel, Green, Helmholtz, Kirchhoff, and Rayleigh; and the
cornerstones of the modern theory including Keller's geometrical
theory of diffraction, boundary-layer theory, and super-resolution.
Appendices on the Cornuspiral and Babinet's principle also are
included.
