Abstract:A new-technology, broad-band seismic land source based on the principle of magnetic levitation is under development. The new source is designed to overcome limitations experienced with controlled-signal seismic sources at the present time, and to create new possibilities. In particular, the new source extends the constant peak force frequency band down to 2 Hz, and is capable of at least several weeks continuous, coherent transmission. It will enable three-dimensional long-range (>200 km) controlled-signal sei… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
