contents Flash X-ray computed tomography (CT) is an important imaging modality for characterization of high-speed dynamic events, such as Kolsky bar impact experiments for the study of mechanical properties of materials subjected to impulsive forces. Due to experimental constraints, the number of X-ray views that can be obtained is typically very sparse in both space and time, requiring strong priors in order to enable a CT reconstruction. In this paper, we propose an effective method for exploiting the cylindrical symmetry inherent in the experiment via a variant of total variation (TV) regularization that operates in cylindrical coordinates, and demonstrate that it outperforms competing approaches.
