Abstract
Methods are discussed for reconstructing spatial distributions from two types of projection-in a direction tangential to a torus and in a cross-sectional plane. For a tangential projection the reconstruction is unambiguous. For cross-sectional projections one usually does not have enough information for an unambiguous reconstruction, unless strong simplifying assumptions are made. A method is given for fitting a spatial distribution to such projections. Tests of both methods are discussed. The fitting method for cross-sectional projections is compared with a Fourier-series method.Keywords
