Atomic
Atomic extensions discussed elsewhere include minutes and hafnium.
Atomic does not temper out the schisma, so 3/2 is one schisma sharp of its 12edo value. In atomic, since twelve fifths are sharp of seven octaves by twelve schismas, the Pythagorean comma is twelve schismas, and hence 81/80, the Didymus comma, is eleven schismas. In fact eleven schismas is sharp of 81/80, and twelve schismas of the Pythaorean comma, by the microscopic interval of the atom, which atomic tempers out. Extremely accurate.
