Aldebaran is the non-octave rank-2 temperament of the 3.5.13 subgroup that tempers out 3159/3125. It has a generator of 5/3 (similar to arcturus) and equates 5 of them with 13/9. It possesses non-trivial MOS of the families 2L 5s⟨3/1⟩, 2L 7s⟨3/1⟩, 2L 9s⟨3/1⟩, 2L 11s⟨3/1⟩, 13L 2s⟨3/1⟩, and 15L 13s⟨3/1⟩. Aldebaran temperament can accurately approximate the chord 9:13:15, which could be viewed as the "fundamental" chord of the 3.5.13 subgroup (similar to 4:5:6 for the 5-limit or 3:5:7 for the no-twos 7-limit) due to being tritave-equivalent to 3:5:13. 15edt's major sixth is near the optimal tuning for Aldebaran.
For technical data, see No-twos subgroup temperaments #Aldebaran.
