3L 1s⟨3/2⟩ is a 3/2-equivalent (fifth-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 3 large steps and 1 small step, repeating every interval of 3/2 (702.0 ¢). Generators that produce this scale range from 175.5 ¢ to 234 ¢, or from 468 ¢ to 526.5 ¢. Scales of this form are always proper because there is only one small step. The so-called "Super Ultra Hyper Mega Meta Lydian" is one mode of this mos.
The notation "<3/2>" means the period of the MOS is 3/2, disambiguating it from octave-repeating 3L 1s. The name of the period interval is called the sesquitave (by analogy to the tritave). The generator range is 171.4 to 240 ¢, placing it near the diatonic major second, usually representing a major second of some type. The dark (chroma-negative) generator is, however, its fifth complement (480 to 514.3 ¢).
In the fifth-repeating version of the diatonic scale, each tone has a 3/2 perfect fifth above it. The scale has two major chords and two minor chords.
Angel is a proposed name for this mos. Basic Angel is in 7edf, which is a very good fifth-based equal tuning similar to 12edo.
Notation
There are 4 main ways to notate the angel scale. One method uses a simple sesquitave (fifth) repeating notation consisting of 4 naturals (eg. Do Re Mi Fa, Sol La Si Do). Given that 1–5/4–5/3 is fifth-equivalent to a tone cluster of 1–10/9–5/4, it may be more convenient to notate angel scales as repeating at the double, triple or quadruple sesquitave (major ninth, thirteenth or seventeenth i. e. ~pentave), however it does make navigating the genchain harder. This way, 5/3 is its own pitch class, distinct from 10/9. Notating this way produces a major ninth which is the Aeolian mode of Napoli[6L 2s], a major thirteenth which is the Dorian mode of Bijou[9L 3s] or an ~pentave which is the Mixolydian mode of Hextone[12L 4s]. Since there are exactly 8 naturals in double sesquitave notation, 12 in triple sesquitave notation and 16 in quadruple sesquitave notation, letters A–H (FGABHCDEF) or dozenal or hex digits (0123456789XE0 or D1234567FGACD with flats written C molle or 0123456789ABCDEF0 or G123456789ABCDEFG with flats written F molle) may be used.

Temperaments
The most basic rank-2 temperament interpretation of angel is Napoli. The name "Napoli" comes from the “Neapolitan” sixth triad spelled root-(p-2g)-(2p-3g)
(p = 3/2, g = the whole tone) which serves as its minor triad approximating 5:6:8 in pental interpretations or 18:21:28 in septimal ones. Basic ~7edf fits both interpretations.
