[…]
Presenter: Chrysoula Tsogka, Professor, Applied Mathematics, UC Merced Description: In a strongly scattering medium, waves undergo multiple scattering that is usually seen as an obstacle to imaging. Time-reversal experiments show the opposite: waves re-emitted into the medium refocus on their source more sharply than in a homogeneous medium, because scattering makes the array appear larger […]
