In the context of [[ThreeDimensionalConfigurations/RiemannStype#Expressions_Supplied_by_EFE|Riemann S-type ellipsoids]], this pair of solutions arises from the choice of the sign <math>(\pm)</math> in the expression for <math>\Omega_3</math>; in the context of Type I Riemann ellipsoids (<i>i.e.</i>, here) the pair arises from the choice of the sign <math>(\mp)</math> in the <font color="red">STEP #3</font> determination of <math>\beta</math> and <math>\gamma</math>. In both physical contexts, the ''direct'' (Jacobi-like) solution results from selecting the ''inferior'' sign while the ''adjoint'' (Dedekind-like) solution results from selecting the ''superior'' sign.
