15/14 is a superparticular ratio with a numerator which is the fifth triangular number.

It may be found as the interval between many 7-limit ratios, including:

Although called "septimal diatonic semitone" for its proximity (and conflation in systems such as septimal meantone) with the classic diatonic semitone 16/15, 15/14 is a chromatic semitone in both Helmholtz-Ellis notation and Functional Just System because it is 5120/5103 larger than the apotome 2187/2048.

In combination with 19/17 it forms a good approximation of golden meantone.
