Waves• Notation (teleseisms)
P, S = mantle phasesK = outer core P waveI,(J) = inner core P and S
c = reflection from the outer corepP, sP = reflections from the earth surface near the
source(Lower case = reflection)
PKP = P wave in mantle, outer core, mantlePcP = Mantle phase reflected from the outer core
