186 zeta peak index (abbreviated 186zpi), is the equal-step tuning system obtained from the 186st peak of the Riemann zeta function.

Theory

186zpi sets a height record on the Riemann zeta function with primes 2 and 3 removed. The last record is 125zpi and the next is 565zpi. It is important to highlight that the optimal equal tunings obtained by excluding the prime numbers 2 and 3 from the Riemann zeta function differs very slightly from the optimal equal tuning corresponding to the same peaks on the unmodified Riemann zeta function.
