Pulsed TV holography and tomography for the study of transient waves in air

• Transient waves in air are recorded and reconstructed using pulsed TV holography and computerized tomography (CT). Experiments are performed with an electrical discharge between two electrodes as the acoustic wave source. The free space wave-fronts and pressure fields are reconstructed. Waves reflected and diffracted by different obstacles are also recorded and reconstructed in three dimensions. Speckle averaging and image processing techniques are used to get the high quality projection fields needed for CT reconstruction.
