-For 2d data the orientation of the particle is required, described using
-angles $\theta$, $\phi$ and $\Psi$ as in the diagrams below, for further details

-The angle $\Psi$ is the rotational angle around the long *C* axis. For example,
-$\Psi = 0$ when the *B* axis is parallel to the *x*-axis of the detector.

-For 2d, constraints must be applied during fitting to ensure that the inequality
-$A < B < C$ is not violated, and hence the correct definition of angles is preserved. The calculation will not report an error,
