On the Range of the Attenuated Radon Transform in Strictly Convex Sets

Abstract

We present new necessary and sufficient conditions for a function on $\partial\Omega\times S^1$ to be in the range of the attenuated Radon transform of a sufficiently smooth function support in the convex set $\bar\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. The approach is based on an explicit Hilbert transform associated with traces of the boundary of A-analytic functions in the sense of Bukhgeim.
