Okay, suppose the viewing field is circular and we consider two particles as in the attached image. Probability of being within the field: R0 > sqrt((x1+R1-x0)^2 + (y1+R1-y0)^2) Probability of being outside the field: R0 < sqrt((x2-R1-x0)^2 + (y2-R1-y0)^2) Since these are the limiting cases, it l

Hi Petr, This is off the top of my head, but I assume that the shape of the particle is not considered in counting. Assume particles are uniformly distributed in the viewing field. If all particles entirely within the field are counted, large particles will be undercounted. If all particles within
