A Qualitative Approach to Inverse Scattering Theory formatIsbn:Softcover 9781489979605 a subsidiary company of Boehringer formatIsbn:Softcover 9783642430046 a subsidiary company of Boehringer Ingelheim and of Arzneimittelforschung Ges This book addresses these issues by bringing together some of the leading researchers and thinkers in the field These new methods come under the general title of qualitative methods in inverse scattering theory and seek to determine an approximation to the shape of the scattering object as well as estimates on its material properties without making any weak scattering assumption and using essentially no a priori information on the nature of the scattering object the authors do exceptionally well in combining such a wide variety of mathematical material and in presenting it in a well organized and easy to follow fashion
