PhD Position F/ M Passive imaging for terrestrial and solar seismology
Contexte et atouts du poste
We propose a three-years Ph.D. student position in passive imaging for terrestrial and solar seismology. This position is in the context of the ERC-StG project INCORWAVE (Travel expenses for participation in conferences, workshops, and research stays are also covered within the project.
Mission confiée
The objective of the Ph.D. thesis is to investigate and develop accurate methods and software for passive imaging. In terrestrial and solar seismology, surface oscillations are measured and used to infer the inner structures. These oscillations relate to the propagation of waves through the medium, propagation that depends on the inner physical properties such as density, bulk modulus, meridional circulation, etc. Therefore, observing the waves allows us to reconstruct the properties we cannot access. In the problems we consider, the waves originate from natural/stochastic events in the interior, and to extract information from the oscillations, we work with the cross-correlation of signals. The cross-correlation can be related to deterministic Green's functions which are solutions to wave equations, [2,3,4], giving us the relation between the physical properties and the observations.
Principales activités
The program will be divided into two main phases, with all software development and numerical implementation performed in the open-source code hawen developed in the team Makutu,
