Iterative Abel Inversion of Optically Thick, Cylindrically Symmetric Radiation Sources.
Abstract
An inversion algorithm for obtaining the radial emission and absorption coefficients of a cylindrically symmetric radiation source from transverse profiles of monochromatic radiance and absorptance is described and compared with the algorithm of Elder et al. It is shown that the present method converges to the correct solution, whereas the Elder et al. method does not. (Author)
