Named in honor of [[John H. Chalmers]], it is the smallest 13-limit [[superparticular]] comma. Tempering it out equates [[351/350]] and [[352/351]], thus splitting [[176/175]] into two, and equates 385/351 and 351/320, thus splitting [[77/64]] into two – these are features highly characteristic of '''chalmers temperaments'''. In addition, it equates a stack consisting of a [[729/512]] tritone plus a [[169/128]] grave fourth with a stack consisting of a [[25/16]] augmented fifth plus a [[77/64]] minor third.
