'''2601/2600''' is a [[17-limit]] (also 2.3.5.13.17 subgroup) [[superparticular]] [[comma]] measuring about 0.67 [[cent]]s. It may be properly described as the ''septendecimal sixth-tones comma'', since it is the difference between [[51/50]] and [[52/51]], the two 17-limit sixth-tones. Another prominent identity is the little gap between [[18/13]] and a stack of two [[20/17]]'s.

'''2601/2600''', the '''sextantonisma''', is a [[17-limit]] (also 2.3.5.13.17 [[subgroup]]) [[superparticular]] [[comma]] measuring about 0.67 [[cent]]s. It may be properly described as the ''septendecimal sixth-tones comma'', since it is the difference between [[51/50]] and [[52/51]], the two 17-limit sixth-tones. Another prominent identity is the little gap between [[18/13]] and a stack of two [[20/17]]'s.

== Commatic relations ==

In terms of commas, it is the difference between the following pairs:

* [[289/288]] and [[325/324]]

* [[289/288]] and [[325/324]] (both of these commas are also within the 2.3.5.13.17 subgroup, while most others listed here are not)

* [[561/560]] and [[715/714]]

* [[833/832]] and [[1225/1224]]

* [[2431/2430]] and [[37180/37179]]

== Temperaments ==

Tempering out this comma results in [[26/25]] ~~being~~ split into two equal parts, each representing 51/50~52/51, and enables the ~~related essentially tempered~~ chords.

Tempering out this comma in the 17-limit results in the rank-6 '''sextantonismic temperament''', or in the 2.3.5.13.17 subgroup, the rank-4 '''sextantonic temperament'''. In either case [[26/25]] is split into two equal parts, each representing 51/50~52/51, and enables the [[sextantonismic chords]]. If [[140625/140608]] is also added to the comma list, the sixth-tone above becomes literally a sixth of [[9/8]] and is tuned exactly middle of 51/50 and 52/51. This temperament, however, strongly suggests also tempering out [[9801/9800]] and/or [[12376/12375]] since 2601/2600 = (9801/9800)(12376/12375)<sup>2</sup>(140625/140608).

== Etymology ==

The sextantonisma was named by [[Flora Canou]] in 2023. It is a contraction of ''septendecimal sixth-tones comma'' into a single word consisting of Latin ''sextans'' ("sixth") and ''tonus'' ("tone").
