Abstract

In this paper is demonstrated a complete algorithm for determining the electron density of an individual particle from diffraction patterns of many particles, randomly oriented about a single axis. The algorithm operates on angular correlations among the measured intensity distributions. We also demonstrate the ability to recover the angular correlation functions of a single particle from measured diffraction patterns.
