casts the problem of slope estimation as a univariate optimization problem, based
on the observation that the partial differential equation

is zero-valued if the wavefield u(t,x) consists only of plane waves with
time slope, or ``stepout,'' p. Claerbout also notes that a cascade of two
PDEs annihilates data consisting of plane waves with two slopes, p1 and p2.
The analog to equation () is:
