Abstract
A pulsed laser has been used to generate wide bandwidth acoustic pulses in a range of rock samples in the laboratory. A nonresonant piezoelectric transducer was used as the detector. This system can measure longitudinal and shear wave velocities simultaneously, from a single waveform, and can also be used to determine frequency-dependent attenuation in the MHz region. Values of a quality factor (Q) for longitudinal waves are evaluated.
