Measurement theory of a density profile of small spheres on a cylindrical surface: Conversion of force curve measured with surface force apparatus into pressure on its surface element

Recently, in an ensemble of small spheres, we proposed a method that converts the force between two large spheres into the pressure on the large sphere's surface element. Using it, the density distribution of the small spheres around the large sphere can be obtained experimentally. In a similar manner, in this letter, we propose a transform theory for surface force apparatus, which transforms the force acting on the cylinder into the density distribution of the small spheres on the cylindrical surface. The transform theory we derived is briefly explained in this letter.
