Abstract(in English) Using the laser ultrasonic method, we investigated the distribution of acoustic waves on and inside of a sphere excited by a line source. Experimental results revealed that surface acoustic waves were confined within a narrow path due to the balance of the diffraction and convergence effects. Moreover, the distribution had unique divergent, collimating and focussing forms, which had been predicted theoretically. The multiple reflections of bulk waves inside fused silica ball were also observed, and a shear wave reflected 3 times in a round-trip was identified.
