Gustav Kirchhoff developed a precise formulation of the Huygens-Fresnel principle based on the wave equation. Geophysicists today use Kirchhoff’s theory to produce digital images of media whose material parameters vary arbitrarily. To fully understand the principles underlying seismic imaging, we must appreciate the limitations that difracción imposes on system performance.
