Traditionally, the Marchenko equation forms a basis for 1D inverse scattering problems. A
3D extension of the Marchenko equation enables the retrieval of the Green's response to a …

Standard imaging techniques rely on the single scattering assumption. This requires that the
recorded data do not include internal multiples, ie, waves that have bounced multiple times …

Recent work on retrieving the Green's function with the Marchenko equation shows how
these functions for a virtual source in the subsurface can be obtained from reflection data …

Conventional imaging algorithms assume single scattering and therefore cannot image
multiply scattered waves correctly. The multiply scattered events in the data are imaged at …

Internal multiple reflections have different propagation paths than primary reflections and
surface-related multiples; thus, they can complement illumination where other waves are …

Internal multiples deteriorate the image when the imaging procedure assumes only single
scattering, especially if the velocity model does not have sharp contrasts to reproduce such …

The Marchenko method can retrieve Green's functions among virtual sources in the
subsurface and receivers at the surface from single-sided reflection data. This process …

Single scattering events recorded in surface seismic data do not fully illuminate the
subsurface structure, especially if it is complicated. In such cases, multiple internal …

Full Green's functions between image points and the recording surface are crucial to
constructing accurate subsurface wavefields and images beyond the single-scattering …

Recent papers show that imaging with the retrieved Green's function constructed by the
Marchenko equations, called Marchenko imaging, reduces artifacts from internal and free …
