The translation and orientation geometry used by this canSAS standard are consistent with:
| Cartesian: | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system |

| SHADOW: | The translation and orientation geometry definitions used here are different than those used by SHADOW (http://www.nanotech.wisc.edu/shadow). In SHADOW, the \(y\) and \(z\) axes are swapped and the direction of \(x\) is changed. |
