Über die Radon-Transformation kreissymmetrischer Funktionen und ihre Beziehung zur Sommerfeldschen Theorie der Hankelfunktionen

For the Radon transform of functions with circular symmetry an inversion formula is proved in a new and elementary way. The inversion formula combined with Fourier theory is applied to Sommer-feld's integral for H, yielding a representation of products which generalizes Nicholson's integral for |H| ².
