Abstract English In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for seismic imaging based on the flow out of Gaussian wave packets. We follow the standard strategy of decomposing data into wave packets and flowing them out along rays to approximate the downward wavefield extrapolation, and finally applying an imaging condition. We revisit each computational step to gain efficiency. Furthermore, we develop procedure for seismic data decomposition in order to obtain highly sparse representations with Gaussian wave packets. As a result we get fast algorithm heavily exploiting sparse data representation and analytic description of Gaussian wave packets. We tests our algorithm on synthetic example of migrating common-shot gather.
