Abstract: Thermo- and photo- acoustic tomography require reconstructing initial acoustic pressure in a body from time series of pressure measured on a surface surrounding the body. For the classical case of free space wave propagation, various reconstruction techniques are well known. However, some novel measurement schemes place the object of interest between reflecting walls that form a de facto resonant cavity. In this case, known methods (including the popular time reversal algorithm) cannot be used. The inverse problem involving reflecting walls can be solved by the $gradual$ $time$ $reversal$ method we propose here. It consists in solving back in time on the interval $[0,T]$ the initial/boundary value problem for the wave equation, with the Dirichlet boundary data multiplied by a smooth cut-off function. If $T$ is sufficiently large one obtains a good approximation to the initial pressure; in the limit of large $T$ such an approximation converges (under certain conditions) to the exact solution.
