These mysterious waves, known as PKP precursors, arrive just before a type of seismic wave known as PKP waves, which travel through the Earth during an earthquake.

Both ultrasound for medical imaging and seismology for imaging the Earth's interior measure the propagation of waves through matter. For example, when seismic waves encounter material differences in ...

Waves from these quakes traveled through the core and up to North America, where they were recorded by EarthScope, a project that deployed portable seismic monitors across the U.S. between 2003 ...

Using the InSight lander scientists have measured seismic waves traveling through the core of Mars for the first time gathering clues as to why the Red Planet may not be fit for life.

Two types of seismic signals. Ocean waves generate microseismic signals in two different ways.. The most energetic of the two, known as the secondary microseism, throbs at a period between about ...
