We report on progress in developing a magnetotelluric inversion method for two-dimensional anisotropic conductivity distribution. A standard two-dimensional model is discretized into a number of rectangular cells, each with a constant conductivity tensor, and the solution of the inverse problem is obtained by minimizing a global objective functional consisting of data misfit, a structural const...

An inversion formula was developed by Bukhgeim and Kazantsev for attenuated fan-beam projections [Russian Academy of Science Siberian Branch: The Sobolev Institute of Mathematics (2002)]. The inversion formula was obtained by relating the attenuated fan-beam projections to unattenuated fan-beam projections and by trickily processing the unattenuated fan-beam projections. We show in this paper t...
