m BudjarnLambeth moved page 272629760/272629233 to 65/19 atom: Long comma name (I didn’t make the name 65/19 atom, it was already in the info box, just didn’t show up for some reason)

'''272629233/272629760''', the '''65/19 atom''', is an unnoticeable comma in the 2.3.5.13.19 subgroup. It is the amount by which the 13-comma [[6656/6561]] ("tetris comma") exceeds the 19/5-comma [[41553/40960]] (the difference between the classical major third [[5/4]] lowered by an [[apotome]] and the novemdecimal minor third [[19/16]]). Their difference is small enough that [[sagittal]] accidentals do not distinguish between the 13-comma and the 19/5-comma: the most accurate possible representation of the 13th harmonic in sagittal accidentals (as three octaves above a <code>)/||| P5</code>) accrues this 0.0033{{cent}} error.
'''272629760/272629233''', the '''65/19&nbsp;atom''', is a [[19-limit]] (2.3.5.13.19 subgroup) [[unnoticeable comma]]. It represents the tiny interval between the pythagorean comma [[pythagorean comma|3<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>19</sup>]] and the wilsorma [[65/64]] lowered by the 19-schisma [[513/512]].
 
Notably, the 65/19&nbsp;atom is also the amount by which the 13-comma [[6656/6561]] ("tetris comma") exceeds the 19/5-comma [[41553/40960]] (an [[apotome]] above [[19/16]] lowered by [[5/4]]). Their difference is small enough that the untempered Promethian (high precision) and Herculean (ultra precision) [[sagittal]] accidental systems equate the 13-comma with the 19/5 comma: the most accurate possible representation of the [[13/1|13th harmonic]] in JI sagittal accidentals at these precision levels (as three octaves above a {{nowrap|{{sagittal| /||| }}P5}}) accrues this 0.0033{{cent}} error.
