Zusammenfassung:
Helioseismic holography is a powerful technique used to probe the solar interior based on estimations of the 3D wavefield. The Porter–Bojarski holography, which is a well-established method used in acoustics to recover sources and scatterers in 3D, is also an estimation of the wavefield, and hence it has the potential of being applied to helioseismology. Here we present a proof-of-concept study, where we compare helioseismic holography and Porter–Bojarski holography under the assumption that the waves propagate in a homogeneous medium. We consider the problem of locating a point source of wave excitation inside a sphere. Under these assumptions, we find that the two imaging methods have the same capability of locating the source, with the exception that helioseismic holography suffers from “ghost images” (i.e. artificial peaks away from the source location). We conclude that Porter–Bojarski holography may improve the method currently used in helioseismology.
