Abstract

We present in this paper a data fitting method that analyzes a spherical shell that uses the near orthogonality of the Spherical Harmonics Ylm(Θ,Φ) within a discrete data collected on a spherical shell to obtain the best rms fit. This is obtained through the generation of an orthogonal basis from the spherical harmonics Ylm(Θ,Φ) on a discrete and often irregular data set on a spherical shell.
