This article extends the author's past work [11] to attenuated X-ray transforms, where the attenuation is complex-valued and only depends on position. We give a positive and constructive answer to the attenuated tensor tomography problem on the Euclidean unit disc in fan-beam coordinates. For a tensor of arbitrary order, we propose an equivalent tensor of the same order which can be uniquely and stably reconstructed from its attenuated transform, as well as an explicit and efficient procedure to do so.

Keywords: Tensor tomography, fan-beam coordinates, attenuated X-ray transform, radon transform, Doppler transform, killing decomposition, invariant distributions.
