Reconstruction of 3D Image of Nanorice Particle from Randomly Oriented Single-Shot Experimental Diffraction Patterns Using Angular Correlation Method

Abstract

We reconstructed intensities in Fourier space and electron densities in the real space for an azimuthally symmetric object Nanorice particle (Iron Oxide nanoparticle) exposed in the ultrashort, bright and coherent x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) pulses with random unknown orientations through the method of angular correlations among intensities appeared in ninety eight 2D diffraction patterns collected at Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS).
