Inverse source problems in transport via attenuated tensor tomography

Analysis of PDEs 2019-08-20 v1

Abstract

We establish results for the injectivity and injectivity modulo gauge of certain inverse source problems in transport on a simply connected domain with variable index of refraction inducing a 'simple geometry'. The model given by radiative transfer involves a scattering kernel with finite harmonic content in the deviation angle. The results on injectivity are constructive, and they are connected to the explicit inversion (modulo kernel) of the attenuated X-ray transform on tensor fields on simple Riemannian surfaces.
