Welcome
The Physical Acoustics Laboratory (PAL) is housed in the Department of Geosciences at Boise State University. Our interests are many, but center around wave propagation in disordered media for applications in Geophysics ranging from seismic processing to CO2 sequestration and geothermal exploration. Particularly, we are interested in extracting information from multiply scattered waves in heterogeneous media. In the lab, these (ultrasonic) waves are excited and detected with lasers.
