The volume must obviously be greater or equal to the particle-volume.
A function that provide the moment tensor (\sum_k x_i^k f_j^k without division 
by a volume) for one particle 
can be used with any shape (avoid the volume computation by means of radii). 
It can also be summed and then divided by the volume you want...
