Summary

Description
English: Patterns of seismic wave travel through Earth’s mantle and core. S-waves can’t travel through the liquid outer core, so they leave a shadow on Earth’s far side. P-waves do travel through the core, but P-wave refraction bends seismic waves away from P-wave shadow zones.
