Everything about Conical coordinates
Three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system
Conical coordinates, sometimes called sphero-conal or sphero-conical coordinates, are a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system consisting of concentric spheres and by two families of perpendicular elliptic cones, aligned along the z- and x-axes, respectively. The intersection between one of the cones and the sphere forms a spherical conic. Wikipedia →
