Abstract
Most, if not all, work on inverse scattering problems assumes a well defined model for the scattering processes within the target medium. This model is normally assumed fixed for the purposes of the investigation. So, for example, it might be assumed that the target medium is an elastic material characterized by its density and elastic constants. With this given efforts are made to find ways of reconstructing these material attributes from knowledge of incident and scattered waves. If loss mechanisms are also present in the material these are incorporated in the model and an attempt is made to recover both the elastic and loss properties from scattering data, now in the context of the extended model.
