Ragisma

4375/4374, the ragisma, being the difference between a stack of two large limmas and 7/6, is a 7-limit unnoticeable comma. It is the smallest 7-limit superparticular ratio. It is tempered out in ragismic microtemperaments. 4375/4374 is also equal to (25/18)²/(27/14) and the difference between a kleisma (S25² × S26) and a marvel comma (S15 = S25 × S26 × S27), hence its expression as S25 / S27 which directly implies it can be expressed as (28/24 = 7/6)/(27/25)².

Etymology

This comma was allegedly named by Erv Wilson no later than 2001. Interestingly, by 2004 people had already lost track of its origin and meaning. Maybe it was named after Indian ragas? (Pure speculation.)
