The '''chalmersia''' is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] [[comma]] with a [[ratio]] of '''123201/123200''' and a size of approximately 0.014 [[cent]]s. It is the smallest 13-limit [[superparticular]] comma.


The '''chalmersia''' is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] comma with a ratio of '''123201/123200''' and a size of approximately 0.014{{cent}}. 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 properties characteristic of '''chalmersic 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; it splits [[81/77]] into two [[40/39]]s; it splits [[11/7]] into two [[351/280]]s; and it splits the pythagorean limma [[256/243]] into [[26/25]] and [[78/77]].
It factors into the two smallest [[17-limit]] superparticular ratios: 123201/123200 = ([[194481/194480]])([[336141/336140]]).
