r"""
Calculates the interparticle structure factor for a system of charged,
spheroidal, objects in a dielectric medium [1,2]. When combined with an
appropriate form factor $P(q)$, this allows for inclusion of the
interparticle interference effects due to screened Coulombic
repulsion between the charged particles.

.. note::

   This routine only works for charged particles! If the charge is set
   to zero the routine may self-destruct! For uncharged particles use
   the :ref:`hardsphere` $S(q)$ instead. The upper limit for the charge
   is limited to 200e to avoid numerical instabilities.

.. note::

   Earlier versions of SasView did not incorporate the so-called
   $\beta(q)$ ("beta") correction [3] for polydispersity and non-sphericity.
   This is only available in SasView versions 5.0 and higher.

The salt concentration is used to compute the ionic strength of the solution
which in turn is used to compute the Debye screening length. There is no
provision for entering the ionic strength directly. **At present the
counterions are assumed to be monovalent**, though it should be possible
to simulate the effect of multivalent counterions by increasing the salt
concentration.

Over the range 0 - 100 C the dielectric constant $\kappa$ of water may be
approximated with a maximum deviation of 0.01 units by the empirical
formula [4]

.. math::

    \kappa = 87.740 - 0.40008 T + 9.398x10^{-4} T^2 - 1.410x10^{-6} T^3

where $T$ is the temperature in celsius.

In SasView the effective radius may be calculated from the parameters
used in the form factor $P(q)$ that this $S(q)$ is combined with.

The computation uses a Taylor series expansion at very small rescaled $qR$, to
avoid some serious rounding error issues, this may result in a minor artefact
in the transition region under some circumstances.

For 2D data, the scattering intensity is calculated in the same way as 1D,
where the $q$ vector is defined as

.. math::

    q = \sqrt{q_x^2 + q_y^2}
