ABSTRACT:
An acoustic energy source or gun for use in an aqueous environment such as in a borehole, a well, or in open water. The apparatus, when lowered into a water occupied borehole or the like, functions to create a series of acoustic impulses without forming bubbles, as a result of the water rapidly infilling an implosion cylinder or chamber. A piston rod assembly is reciprocally mounted in each acoustic chamber and is actuated by a power source to trigger the desired sound creating series of impulses.
