We study the stability of the reconstruction of the scattering and absorption coefficients in a stationary linear transport equation from knowledge of the full albedo operator in dimension n≥3. The albedo operator is defined as the mapping from the incoming boundary conditions to the outgoing transport solution at the boundary of a compact and convex domain. The uniqueness of the reconstruction was proved in [2, 3] and partial stability estimates were obtained in [12] for spatially independent scattering coefficients. We generalize these results and prove an L¹-stability estimate for spatially dependent scattering coefficients.
