Seismic Ray

Seismic Ray :

Vector perpendicular to the wave front pointing into the direction of wave propagation and marking behind it the "ray trace". The propagation of seismic waves can be easily modeled as the propagation of seismic rays following Snell's Law. This assumption is a reasonable approximation for high frequency waves
