We study the geodesic X-ray transform XX on compact Riemannian surfaces with conjugate points. Regardless of the type of the conjugate points, we show that we cannot recover the singularities and therefore, this transform is always unstable (ill-posed). We describe the microlocal kernel of XX and relate it to the con…

We study the integral transform over a general family of broken rays in R2\mathbb{R}^2.
