Abstract:Abel’s integral equation is frequently used in many areas of physics to reconstruct the radial physical quantity distribution from its projection data. In this paper, a new effective and accurate Abel inversion algorithm based on shifted Legendre polynomials is proposed and analyzed. The proposed method is derivative-free and singularity-free. Both the input projection data and the unknown solutions of the Abel’s integral equation are approximately expressed as Legendre expansions. A Legendre operational matri… Show more
