In [[just intonation]], '''41503/41472''' is the comma between three [[8/7]]'s (693.522 cents) and two [[11/9]]'s (694.816 cents), measuring 1.294 cents<ref>Gayle Young, "The Pitch Organization of ''Harmonium for James Tenney''", Perspectives of New Music, vol. 26, no. 2, summer 1988, pp. 204–12.

So it is the difference of [[1029/1024]] and [[243/242]]. Besides, it is also the difference of [[385/384]] and [[540/539]]. Those two ratios make up [[225/224]]. Therefore, tempering it out guarantees that 225/224 is split into two, each for 385/384~540/539.

Therefore, tempering it out guarantees that 225/224 is split into two, each for 385/384~540/539.

It factors into two superparticular commas: [[2401/2400]] × [[3025/3024]].

== Etymology ==

This comma was named the argyria by Lériendil in 2024, on the pattern of the '''olympia''', after Argyre Planitia on Mars.
