9L 2s⟨3/1⟩, also called sub-Arcturus, is a 3/1-equivalent (tritave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 9 large steps and 2 small steps, repeating every interval of 3/1 (1902.0 ¢). Generators that produce this scale range from 1037.4 ¢ to 1056.6 ¢, or from 845.3 ¢ to 864.5 ¢.

This MOS family is the simplest tritave-equivalent scale using an "ordinary" ~5:3 as a generator. Of course, it is on the extremely flat end of what is "ordinary", being the same size as a neutral sixth.

Coincidentally, its categorical name in this scale happens to be "sixth" also, just not in the "ordinary" diatonic sense of the name. Because this "sixth" is so flat, "sixths" in the range of propriety lead, in three steps, when tritave reduced, into the Mavila continuum and the bottom of the syntonic continuum.
