Schematic illustrations of an aggregate and a subunit. (a) A schematic illustration of an aggregate (j = 4) in which the subunits are randomly arranged. Black points and blue arrows represent the COMs of the subunits and the distances between the COMs of neighboring subunits, respectively. (b) A schematic illustration of the ellipsoidal approximation of a subunit. Blue and red arrows represent the semi-axes. The broken black arrow indicates the scattering vector. |
