| Interval information |
175/144, the avicennmic minor third, is a 7-limit interval that exceeds the Pythagorean minor third by an avicennma. It functions as a major third, being a Pythagorean major third flattened by two syntonic commas and a septimal comma, which is further evidenced by the fact that it equals a stack of a 7/6 septimal minor third and a 25/24 classical chromatic semitone.
Terminology
This interval has also been called the keemic minor third, viewed as fudged from 6/5 instead.
Temperaments
This interval is a near-optimal generator for the sixix temperament.
