In this study, we analyze seismic data recorded on the ChinArray following the February 15, 2013 Chelyabinsk (Russia) meteor. This was the largest known object entering the Earth's atmosphere since the 1908 Tunguska meteor. The seismic energy radiated from this event was recorded by seismic stations worldwide including the dense ChinAn'ay that are more than 4000 km away. The weak signal from the meteor event was con- taminated by a magnitude 5.8 Tonga earthquake occur- red ~ 20 min earlier. To test the feasibility of detecting the weak seismic signals from the meteor event, we compute vespagram and perform F-K analysis to the surface-wave data. We identify a seismic phase with back azimuth (BAZ) of 329.7° and slowness of 34.73 s/deg, corre- sponding to the surface wave from the Russian meteor event (BAZ ) 325.97°). The surface magnitude (Ms) of the meteor event is 3.94 ±0.18. We also perform similar analysis on the data from the broadband array F-net in Japan, and find the BAZ of the surface waves to be 316.61%. With the different BAZs of ChinArray and F-net, we locate the Russian meteor event at 58.80°N, 58.72°E. The relatively large mislocation (-438 km as compared with 55.15°N. 61.41°E by others) may be a result of theweak signals at teleseismic distances.展开更多
