Chalmersia: Difference between revisions
changed the phrase "but these are probably mistakes" to "though at least some of these are mistakes" as judging from from some of the archived conversations on this wiki about this comma, it seems that some people actually think that the ending of the name "chalmersia" is a bit weird |

The '''chalmersia''' is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] [[comma]] with a [[ratio]] of '''123201/123200''' and a size of approximately 0.014 [[cent]]s. It is the smallest 13-limit [[superparticular]] comma. | |||
It factors into the two smallest [[17-limit]] superparticular ratios: 123201/123200 = ([[194481/194480]])⋅([[336141/336140]]). | |||
== Temperaments == | |||
[[Tempering out]] this comma in the full 13-limit gives the rank-5 '''chalmersic temperament'''. It equates [[351/350]] and [[352/351]], thus splitting [[176/175]] into two, and equates 385/351 and 351/320, thus splitting [[77/64]] into two. In addition, it equates a stack consisting of a [[729/512]] tritone plus a [[169/128]] grave fourth with a stack consisting of a [[25/16]] augmented fifth plus a [[77/64]] minor third; it splits [[81/77]] into two [[40/39]]'s; it splits [[11/7]] into two [[351/280]]'s; and it splits the pythagorean limma [[256/243]] into [[26/25]] and [[78/77]]. | |||

== Etymology == | |||
The chalmersia was named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2003 after [[John Chalmers]]<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_7316.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Nameable 13-limit'']</ref>. | |||
<blockquote>The remarkable 123201/123200 might be named the chalmersia, since John Chalmers is presumably the first to see it.</blockquote> | |||
