M13. Applications of Rich Tomography 

Traditionally, tomography involves the reconstruction of a scalar function, i.e. an image, from its integrals along lines, or possibly surfaces, passing through a region. Rich tomography is a broad term, referring to a family of methods aiming to reconstruct a more complicated object, such as a vector or tensor field, using additional data, such as travel time, energy, or frequency, along curves or curved surfaces. Many problems with important applications fit under this umbrella including spectral CT, Neutron polarimetric and Bragg edge tomography, various types of emission tomography including that arising in range verification for proton therapy, and in synthetic aperture radar.

This mini-symposium will examine such applications, looking at the similar mathematical techniques which unite them.
