摘要
The spatial and temporal slip distribution of the Lushan earthquake was estimated using teleseismic body wave data. To perform a stable inversion, we applied smoothing constraints and determined their optimal relative weights on the observed data using an optimized Akaike＇ s Bayesian Information Criterion （ABIC）. The inversion generated the source parameters. Strike, dip and slip were 218°, 39° and 100. 8° ,respectively. A seismic moment （M0） was 2. 1 × 10^20 Nm with a moment magnitude （Mw） of 6. 8, and a source duration was approximately 30 second. The rupture propagated along the dip direction, and the maximum slip occurred at the hypocenter. The maximum slip was approximately 2. 1 m, although this earthquake did not cause an apparent surface rupture. The energy was mainly released within 10 second. In addition, the Lushan earthquake was apparently related to the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. However, the question of whether it was an aftershock of the Wenchuan earthquake requires further study.
