Abstract:
In this paper we consider the problem of determination of the principal geometrical dimensions of a particle that has a shape close to ellipsoid of revolution from the parameters of particle's projections onto two orthogonal planes. The errors caused by unknown orientation of the particle are estimated. It is shown that these errors may be rather large for an oblate ellipsoid and rather small for the prolate one.
