Reconstruction of complex-valued tensors in the Maxwell system from knowledge of internal magnetic fields

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper concerns the reconstruction of a complex-valued anisotropic tensor γ=σ+ıωεγ=σ+ıω\varepsilon from knowledge of several internal magnetic fields HH, where HH satisfies the anisotropic Maxwell system on a bounded domain with prescribed boundary conditions. We show that γγ can be uniquely reconstructed with a loss of two derivatives from errors in the acquisition of HH. A minimum number of 6 such functionals is sufficient to obtain a local reconstruction of γγ. In the special case where γγ is close to a scalar tensor, boundary conditions are chosen by means of complex geometric optics (CGO) solutions. For arbitrary symmetric tensors γγ, a Runge approximation property is used to obtain partial results. This problem finds applications in the medical imaging modalities Current Density Imaging and Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography.
