tranferring output ctf values from ctffind3 into xmipp
Forums
Hi,
How does ctffind3 calculate the azimuthal angle? Is is calculated from the two ctf defocus values? We want to write ctf values from manual estimation into the xmipp files and do not know how to handle the value for the azimuthal angle!
Thanks a lot, Dieter
The angle is calculated
The angle is calculated between the x axis and the direction of defocus value 1. Please have a look at Midell & Grigorieff 2003.
