This paper is conced with inverse acoustic source problems in an unbounded domain with dynamical boundary surface data of Dirichlet kind.The measurement data are taken at a surface far away from the source support.We prove uniqueness in recovering source terms of the form f(x)g(t) and f(x1,x2,t)h(x3),where g(t) and h(x3) are given and x =(x1,x2,x3) is the spatial variable in three dimensions.Without these a priori information,we prove that the boundary data of a family of solutions can be used to recover general source terms depending on both time and spatial variables.For moving point sources radiating periodic signals,the data recorded at four receivers are prove sufficient to uniquely recover the orbit function.Simultaneous determination of embedded obstacles and source terms was verified in an inhomogeneous background medium using the observation data of infinite time period.Our approach depends heavily on the Laplace transform.
