We derive a new 3D model for magnetic particle imaging (MPI) that is able to incorporate realistic magnetic fields in the reconstruction process. In real MPI scanners, the generated magnetic fields have distortions that lead to deformed magnetic low-field volumes (LFV) with the shapes of ellipsoids or bananas instead of ideal field-free points (FFP) or lines (FFL), respectively. Most of the common model-based reconstruction schemes in MPI use however the idealized assumption of an ideal FFP or FFL topology and, thus, generate artifacts in the reconstruction. Our model-based approach is able to deal with these distortions and can generally be applied to dynamic magnetic fields that are approximately parallel to their velocity field. We show how this new 3D model can be discretized and inverted algebraically in order to recover the magnetic particle concentration. To model and describe the magnetic fields, we use decompositions of the fields in spherical harmonics. We complement the description of the new model with several simulations and experiments.

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a promising new in-vivo medical imaging modality in which distributions of super-paramagnetic nanoparticles are tracked based on their response in an applied magnetic field. In this paper we provide a mathematical a
nalysis of the modeled MPI operator in the univariate situation. We provide a Hilbert space setup, in which the MPI operator is decomposed into simple building blocks and in which these building blocks are analyzed with respect to their mathematical properties. In turn, we obtain an analysis of the MPI forward operator and, in particular, of its ill-posedness properties. We further get that the singular values of the MPI core operator decrease exponentially. We complement our analytic results by some numerical studies which, in particular, suggest a rapid decay of the singular values of the MPI operator.
A method is described to model the magnetic field in the vicinity of constellations of multiple satellites using field and plasma current measurements. This quadratic model has the properties that the divergence is zero everywhere and matches the mea
sured values of the magnetic field and its curl (current) at each spacecraft, and thus extends the linear curlometer method to second order. It is able to predict the topology of the field lines near magnetic structures, such as near reconnecting regions or flux ropes, and allows a tracking of the motion of these structures relative to the spacecraft constellation. Comparisons to PIC simulations estimate the model accuracy. Reconstruction of two electron diffusion regions show the expected field line structure. The model can be applied to other small-scale phenomena (bow shock, waves of commensurate wavelength), and can be modified to reconstruct also the electric field, allowing tracing of particle trajectories.
Algebraic models for the reconstruction problem in X-ray computed tomography (CT) provide a flexible framework that applies to many measurement geometries. For large-scale problems we need to use iterative solvers, and we need stopping rules for thes
e methods that terminate the iterations when we have computed a satisfactory reconstruction that balances the reconstruction error and the influence of noise from the measurements. Many such stopping rules are developed in the inverse problems communities, but they have not attained much attention in the CT world. The goal of this paper is to describe and illustrate four stopping rules that are relevant for CT reconstructions.
Here we introduce a new reconstruction technique for two-dimensional Bragg Scattering Tomography (BST), based on the Radon transform models of [arXiv preprint, arXiv:2004.10961 (2020)]. Our method uses a combination of ideas from multibang control an
d microlocal analysis to construct an objective function which can regularize the BST artifacts; specifically the boundary artifacts due to sharp cutoff in sinogram space (as observed in [arXiv preprint, arXiv:2007.00208 (2020)]), and artifacts arising from approximations made in constructing the model used for inversion. We then test our algorithm in a variety of Monte Carlo (MC) simulated examples of practical interest in airport baggage screening and threat detection. The data used in our studies is generated with a novel Monte-Carlo code presented here. The model, which is available from the authors upon request, captures both the Bragg scatter effects described by BST as well as beam attenuation and Compton scatter.
3D Compton scattering imaging is an upcoming concept exploiting the scattering of photons induced by the electronic structure of the object under study. The so-called Compton scattering rules the collision of particles with electrons and describes th
eir energy loss after scattering. Although physically relevant, multiple-order scattering was so far not considered and therefore, only first-order scattering is generally assumed in the literature. The purpose of this work is to argument why and how a contour reconstruction of the electron density map from scattered measurement composed of first- and second-order scattering is possible (scattering of higher orders is here neglected). After the development of integral representations for the first- and second-order scattering, this is achieved by the study of the smoothness properties of associated Fourier integral operators (FIO). The second-order scattered radiation reveals itself to be structurally smoother than the radiation of first-order indicating that the contours of the electron density are essentially encoded within the first-order part. This opens the way to contour-based reconstruction techniques when using multiple scattered data. Our main results, modeling and reconstruction scheme, are successfully implemented on synthetic and Monte-Carlo data.
