Abstract:
We propose a method to reconstruct the electrical current density inside a conducting medium from acoustically-modulated boundary measurements of the electric potential. We show that the current can be uniquely reconstructed with Lipschitz stability. We also perform numerical simulations to illustrate the analytical results, and explore the partial data setting when measurements are taken only on part of the boundary. This method can also be applied to the reconstruction of the electrical current density from acoustically-modulated boundary measurements of time-harmonic electromagnetic fields.
