Marchenko focusing functions are in their essence wavefields that satisfy the wave equation subject to a set of boundary, initial, and focusing conditions. Here, we show how Marchenko focusing functions can be modeled by finding the…

We show the capability of the Marchenko method to retrieve not only propagating waves, but also evanescent waves, based on a recent derivation of the Marchenko method that does not depend on up-down decomposition inside the medium of…
