In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''13/12''' is the '''(lesser) tridecimal neutral second''' of about 138.6¢. It is a [[superparticular]] interval, as it is found in the harmonic series between the 13th and the 12th harmonics (between [[13/8]] and [[3/2]] in the octave). It is flat of the [[11-limit]] lesser neutral second of [[12/11]] by [[144/143]] (about 12.1¢), and sharp of the 13-limit large semitone of [[14/13]] by [[169/168]] (about 10.3¢).

In [[13-limit|13-limit]] [[Just_intonation|Just Intonation]], 13/12 is a neutral second of about 138.6¢. It is a [[superparticular|superparticular]] interval, as it is found in the harmonic series between the 13th and the 12th overtone (between [[13/8|13/8]] and [[3/2|3/2]] in the octave). It is flat of the [[11-limit|11-limit]] lesser neutral second of [[12/11|12/11]] by [[144/143|144/143]] (about 12.1¢), and sharp of the 13-limit large semitone of [[14/13|14/13]] by [[169/168|169/168]] (about 10.3¢).

It is approximated to within about 0.11 [[cents]] by the 3-step interval of [[26edo]].


The neutral second in [[17edo|17edo]] is about 141.2¢, about 2.6¢ sharp of 13/12. Thus, if 10\17 (ten degrees of 17edo) is taken to approximate 3/2 and 12\17 taken to approximate 13/8, you can generate a 13-limit harmonic triad that approximates an 8:12:13 chord with a good 13/12.

In 13-limit just intonation, 13/12 is the (lesser) tridecimal neutral second of about 138.6¢. It is a superparticular interval, as it is found in the harmonic series between the 13th and the 12th harmonics (between 13/8 and 3/2 in the octave). It is flat of the 11-limit lesser neutral second of 12/11 by 144/143 (about 12.1¢), and sharp of the 13-limit large semitone of 14/13 by 169/168 (about 10.3¢).
