“…Knowing J(x, y), projections at any angle θ are obtained by mean of Radon transform and reciprocally, the local emission distribution is reconstructed applying inverse Radon transform to side-on intensity profiles, known in practice for a limited number K of viewing directions. In the present study, the local emission distribution J(x, y) is reconstructed adopting the approach described in [9], based on the iradon function under MATLAB environment to calculate the inverse Radon transform starting from K experimental intensity profiles recorded at equidistant angle. Assuming the plasma is optically thin, the intensity profiles recorded at two opposite directions are mutually flipped, reducing then the useful domain of angular scanning from [0 − 2π[ to [0 − π[.…”
