Details:

In a polar plot, the horizontal axis is the azimuthal angle and the vertical
axis is the radius. You can see a nice demonstration in Fig. B.1 of Balmaverde
et al. 2022 <https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.00528v1>.

We can simply re-arrange the pixels of the image of a selected object into
this coordinate system as a FITS image for any kind of analysis.
