'''The Nexus''' is a collection of temperaments of different ranks, including subgroup temperaments, that all temper out the [[nexus comma]] – the unnoticeable comma with the ratio 1771561/1769472, and a monzo of {{monzo|-16 -3 0 0 6}}. Among the known branches of this collection are nexus, schisnex, nexiquart, altinex, and tribilo.

Because the nexus comma is the difference between (121/96)^3 and 2/1, all nexus temperaments divide 2/1 into three equal parts of (approximately) 400 cents.

The Nexus is a collection of temperaments of different ranks, including subgroup temperaments, that all temper out the nexus comma – the unnoticeable comma with the ratio 1771561/1769472, and a monzo of [-16 -3 0 0 6. Among the known branches of this collection are nexus, schisnex, nexiquart, altinex, and tribilo.

Because the nexus comma is the difference between (121/96)3 and 2/1, all nexus temperaments divide 2/1 into three equal parts of (approximately) 400 cents.

Temperaments not discussed here include:

Rank-4 temperaments

The parent temperament of this whole collection is a rank-4 temperament. However, there are other rank-4 extensions which have yet to be explored.

Nexus

The parent temperament for the Nexus is Nexus temperament itself. In this temperament, the 5-limit and 7-limit parts are represented by independent generators.

Rank-3 temperaments

From the rank-4 parent temperament, there are several rank-3 temperaments that can be derived.

Schisnex

This temperament adds the schisma to the list of tempered out commas on account of the schisma being an unnoticeable comma for adding the 5-limit to the mix.

Subgroup: 2.3.5.7.11

Comma list: 32805/32768, 1771561/1769472

Badness: 5.155 × 10-3

Nexiquart

This temperament can be seen as adding the quartisma to the list of tempered out commas on account of the quartisma being an unnoticeable comma for adding the 7-limit to the mix.

Subgroup: 2.3.5.7.11

Comma list: 19712/19683, 1771561/1769472

Rank-2 temperaments

So far, among the only known rank-2 temperaments in the Nexus are altinex and tribilo.

Badness: 0.1012

Tribilo

Tribilo is the pure Rank-2 2.3.11 temperament that tempers out the nexus comma – its name comes from the nexus comma being referred to as the "tribilo comma" in color notation.
