On an inverse source problem for the Biot's equations in electro-seismic imaging

Abstract

Electro-seismic imaging is a novel hybrid imaging modality in geophysical exploration. This paper concerns an inverse source problem for Biot's equations that arise in electro-seismic imaging. Using the time reversal method, we derive an explicit reconstruction formula, which immediately gives the uniqueness and stability of the reconstructed solution.
