Abstract This note deals with the Fourier representation of particle shape. A frequency distribution p n , n = 1,2, …, expressing the contribution of the different harmonics to the dispersion of the position vector is defined. The Meloy law of morphological coefficients may be derived by optimizing the value of the informational entropy which is attached to p n .
