The '''ampersand''', or '''Ampersand's comma''', is the [[comma]] of '''34171875/33554432''' of size 31.567 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which six [[16/15|classical diatonic semitones (16/15)]] fall short of the [[3/2|perfect fifth (3/2)]]; that is, (3/2)/(16/15)<sup>6</sup>, or the amount by which seven such intervals fall short of the [[8/5|classical minor sixth (8/5)]]. The [[5-limit]] temperament tempering it out gives the 5-limit version of [[Gamelismic clan #Miracle|miracle temperament]]. The Ampersand's comma was named after [[Paul Rapoport]]'s cat, Ampersand.
