Abstract
Acoustic pulses in water at megahertz frequencies were directed at several material surfaces over a range of incidence angles. Some of the material had either very high densities or high wave speeds compared with aluminum, indicating, according to a formula by Schoch, that large lateral beam displacement should exist. By means of schlieren photographs, radiation from the solid surface is indicated to be an attenuated surface wave traveling along the solid interface rather than a distinct beam displacement as formulated by Schoch.
