Decomposition and Properties of the Traveltime Sensitivity Kernels in Transversely Isotropic Elastic Media

This study discusses the properties and decompositions of the traveltime sensitivity kernels in elastic isotopic and transversely isotropic media. Analytical solutions in homogeneous isotropic elastic media are derived and help better understand their properties. One key component is the kernel phas...
