Kirnberger's atom is [[tempering out|tempered out]] in such notable edos as {{EDOs| 12, 612, 624, 1236, 1848, 2460, 3072, 3084, 3684, 4296, 4308, 4908, 7980, 12276, 16572, 20868, 25164, 29460, 33756, and 46032 }}, leading to the [[Very high accuracy temperaments #Atomic|atomic temperament]], in which eleven schismas make up a syntonic comma and twelve schismas make up a [[Pythagorean comma]]; any tuning system ([[41edo]], for example) which the number of divisions of the octave is not multiple of 12 cannot be tempering out the Kirnberger's atom.
