Inversion of circular means and the wave equation on convex planar domains
arXiv:1206.1246 · doi:10.1016/j.camwa.2013.01.036
Abstract
We study the problem of recovering the initial data of the two dimensional wave equation from values of its solution on the boundary $\partial \Om$ of a smooth convex bounded domain $\Om \subset \R^2$. As a main result we establish back-projection type inversion formulas that recover any initial data with support in $\Om$ modulo an explicitly computed smoothing integral operator $\K_\Om$. For circular and elliptical domains the operator $\K_\Om$ is shown to vanish identically and hence we establish exact inversion formulas of the back-projection type in these cases. Similar results are obtained for recovering a function from its mean values over circles with centers on $\partial \Om$. Both reconstruction problems are, amongst others, essential for the hybrid imaging modalities photoacoustic and thermoacoustic tomography.
