Each point in the plot describes the diffusion coefficient for one of the lipid types. The distance is the average distance of the given lipid from the COM of the particle. To facilitate comparison between core (three-dimensional diffusion) and surface lipids (two-dimensional diffusion), the coefficients have been scaled with , where is the dimension of the fit (either two or three).
