A Fourier approach to the inverse source problem in an absorbing and anisotropic scattering medium

preprint2019arXivOpen access

Abstract

We revisit the inverse source problem in a two dimensional absorbing and scattering medium and present a non-iterative reconstruction method using measurements of the radiating flux at the boundary. The attenuation and scattering coefficients are known and the unknown source is isotropic. The approach is based on the Cauchy problem for a Beltrami-like equation for the sequence valued maps, and extends the original ideas of A. Bukhgeim from the non-scattering to scattering media. We demonstrate the feasibility of the method in a numerical experiment in which the scattering is modeled by the two dimensional Henyey-Greenstein kernel with parameters meaningful in Optical Tomography.
