'''144/143''', the '''grossma''', is a [[13-limit]] [[small comma]]. It is the difference between the [[11/9]] and [[16/13]] neutral thirds, between the [[12/11]] and [[13/12]] neutral seconds, and between the [[11/8]] and [[18/13]] superfourths/subtritones. Since it seperates so many 2.3.11 and 2.3.13 intervals, the grossma is a very important interval in the 13-limit, with a function in the 2.3.11.13 subgroup akin to [[36/35]] in the 2.3.5.7 subgroup ([[7-limit]]), though the size of 144/143 is a quarter that of 36/35, so tempering it out is arguably more plausible.
