A 6D interferometric inertial isolation system

open access: yes, 2019
We present a novel inertial-isolation scheme based on six degree-of-freedom (6D) interferometric sensing of a single reference mass. It is capable of reducing inertial motion by more than two orders of magnitude at 100\,mHz compared with what is ...

Plant Resonance of Seismometers [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1957
A seismometer resting on an elastic medium can be regarded as a simple damped oscillator. Methods for measuring the “plant” resonance of seismometers are discussed along with the various parameters affecting the resonance. Laboratory measurements on sand and rubber, and field measurements on different types of soils were made using an electromechanical

Magmatic System of the Hainan Plume Revealed by Ambient Noise Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The magmatic system of the Hainan plume is important for unraveling the mechanism of intraplate volcanism. We develop a detailed three‐dimensional shear‐wave velocity (Vs) model of the crust and uppermost mantle using ambient noise tomography to investigate the magmatic system of the Hainan plume. Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersions (5–40

mFAST: A MATLAB toolbox for ocean bottom seismometer refraction first-arrival traveltime tomography

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics, 2022
First-arrival seismic traveltime tomography (FAST) is a well-established technique to estimate subsurface velocity structures. Although several existing open-source packages are available for first-arrival traveltime tomography, most were written in ...

SEIS: Insight's Seismic Experiment for Internal Structure of Mars. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
By the end of 2018, 42 years after the landing of the two Viking seismometers on Mars, InSight will deploy onto Mars' surface the SEIS (Seismic Experiment for Internal Structure) instrument; a six-axes seismometer equipped with both a long-period three ...

Mohorovičić's Seismometer

open access: yesChigaku Zasshi (Jounal of Geography), 2008
Andrija Mohorovicic (1857-1936) is a world-famous Croatian geophysicist and the discoverer of the Earth's crust/mantle boundary known as the Moho-discontinuity. The historical seismometer used by A. Mohorovicic to detect the Moho in 1909 is still maintained in working conditions, and is displayed in the Department of Geophysics of the University of ...

Structure and Seismicity of the Dead Sea Fault and the Galilee Revealed by 3D Earthquake Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Strike‐slip fault systems near regions of oblique tectonic convergence/divergence commonly develop bends, stepovers, and other complexities that control crustal deformation, stress localization, and associated geophysical processes. Here, we investigate the complex crustal structure of the strike‐slip Dead Sea Fault (DSF) system and the ...

First Optical Seismometer at the Top of La Soufrière Volcano, Guadeloupe

open access: yes, 2020
Accurate monitoring of volcanic activity demands expertise in fields including geophysics, geology, and geochemistry. Data obtained from the most recent technical advances are particularly vital in pre-eruptive phases. In particular, seismic monitoring
