Abstract
We survey some of the highlights of inverse scattering theory as it has dev eloped over the last 15 years, with emphasis on uniqueness theorems and rec onstruction algorithms for time harmonic acoustic waves. Included in our pr esentation are numerical experiments using real data and numerical examples of the use of inverse scattering methods to detect buried objects.
