Abstract
This paper deals with the solution of inverse problems in magnetostatics. The cases the authors have broached are finding the current density or positions of air coils on the basis of magnetic field measurements. These problems are ill-posed, so regularization techniques are needed. The authors discuss the main iterative regularization principles, and the stability issues of these inverse problems. This method is applied to MRI magnets. Numerical results are presented.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
