 Projection formula for inverse attenuated Radon transform

Let $F(\rho ,\tau ,\theta )={\int }_{\tau }^{\infty }f(s\mathbf{d}+\rho \mathbf{n})ds$, $S=\mathcal{R}f$, and $A={\int }_{\mathbb{R}}{e}^{-F}gd\tau$ be the directed attenuated Radon transform. With the signed Cauchy boundary operators, set $J=e^F[e^{P^{-}S}{P}^{-}(e^{-P^{-}S}A)+e^{-P^{+}S}{P}^{+}(e^{P^{+}S}A)]$. An integrating factor turns the attenuated equation into unattenuated directional transport; its spectral solution has jump $-J$ on the unit circle. A normalized Cauchy integral formula and the coefficient at spectral infinity then prove the reconstruction formula. Known attenuation and full directed angular data determine the source; attenuation itself is not reconstructed by this pair.
