Abstract
We show that under a certain non-cancellation condition the attenuated Radon transform uniquely determines piecewise constant attenuation $a$ and piecewise $C^2$ source density $f$ with jumps over real analytic boundaries possibly having corners. We also look at numerical examples in which the non-cancellation condition fails and show that unique reconstruction of multi-bang $a$ and $f$ is still appears to be possible although not yet explained by theoretical results.
期刊介绍:
Inverse Problems and Imaging publishes research articles of the highest quality that employ innovative mathematical and modeling techniques to study inverse and imaging problems arising in engineering and other sciences. Every published paper has a strong mathematical orientation employing methods from such areas as control theory, discrete mathematics, differential geometry, harmonic analysis, functional analysis, integral geometry, mathematical physics, numerical analysis, optimization, partial differential equations, and stochastic and statistical methods. The field of applications includes medical and other imaging, nondestructive testing, geophysical prospection and remote sensing as well as image analysis and image processing.
This journal is committed to recording important new results in its field and will maintain the highest standards of innovation and quality. To be published in this journal, a paper must be correct, novel, nontrivial and of interest to a substantial number of researchers and readers.
