Quantifying the expansion rates of aftershock zones for magnitude-7 class earthquakes around the Japanese archipelago
Abstract Earthquakes (mainshocks) trigger sequences of aftershocks, the frequency of which diminishes following a power-law decay, while the spatial domain of these aftershocks extends logarithmically over time. The delineation of the aftershock zone can be modulated by variables beyond the magnitud...
