Summary and Conclusions
-
We have tested a thin-walled glass sphere as a candidate acoustic source for
CTBT studies
-
Promising results for simplicity of deployment, implosion, signal spectrum and
signal level
-
Imploding glass spheres could be developed into a safe, reliable, and inexpensive
acoustic source for CTBT hydroacoustic R&D, e.g. ...
- Travel time calibration
- T-wave studies
- Studies of refraction, scattering, diffraction, and shadow zones
