The gariatom, 1126313291381095/1125899906842624, is an unnoticeable comma measuring about 0.636 cents. It is the amount by which a stack of six garischismas falls short of the Pythagorean comma, or a stack of seven falls short of 64/63, the septimal comma. Edos tempering out the gariatom include 12 and 306.

The name, given by Tristan Bay in 2023, is a reference to both Kirnberger's atom due to its structure and the garischisma due to it being a no-fives 7-limit interval.
