Figure 1. Conceptual illustration of Triple-Pair-Correlation function.

(a) Simulated molecular complex randomly orientated and localized in a three-color image (i), with each complex composed of three different colored elements (ii) and its internal spatial organization defined by (r₁, r₂, Δθ) (iii). (b) Schematic illustration of the 3D Triple-Correlation g(r₁, r₂, Δθ) corresponding to the geometric properties shown in (a). (c) Three 2D correlation maps obtained through one dimensional integration of (b).
