'''7777/7776''', the '''pulsar comma''' or '''power-of-six repdigit comma''' is an unnoticeable comma of 0.223 cents, and it is a part of 101-limit [[just intonation]].

It is the difference between a stack of 5 [[6/1~~|hexataves~~]] and 7, 11, and 101 harmonics stacked, or when octave-reduced, between 7/4, 11/8, and 101/64 and the Pythagorean major seventh, [[243/128]].

The comma derives from the resemblance of a perfect power of 6, 7776, to a decimal repdigit number 7777. It is the difference between a stack of five [[6/1]]'s and 7, 11, and 101 harmonics stacked, or when octave-reduced, between 7/4, 11/8, and 101/64 and the Pythagorean major seventh, [[243/128]]. It is also the difference between 404/243 and 128/77.

The name origin is the following: power-of-six repdigit – ''psr'', which is the astronomical shortening for pulsars.

== Temperaments ==

[[~~135edo~~]] ~~supports a large amount of~~ temperaments ~~when it comes to this comma~~. ~~Other~~ EDOs ~~which temper it out are 342~~, 207, ~~1012~~, 477, ~~1147~~, 971, ~~270~~, ~~836, 877~~.

Some of the edos which [[support]] pulsar temperaments in its 2.3.7.11.101-subgroup [[patent val]]s are {{EDOs| 135, 207, 342, 477, 836, 877, 971, 1012, and 1147}}.
