This is a list showing technical temperament data. For an explanation of what information is shown here, you may look at the technical data guide for regular temperaments.

The hemimean family of rank-3 temperaments tempers out 3136/3125, the hemimean comma.

The hemimean comma is the difference between the septimal semicomma (126/125) and the septimal kleisma (225/224). This fact alone makes hemimean a very notable rank-3 temperament, as any non-meantone tuning of hemimean will split the syntonic comma (81/80) into two equal parts, each representing 126/125~225/224.

Other equivalences characteristic to hemimean are 128/125~50/49 and 49/45~(25/24)2.

Subgroup extensions

Hemimean orion (2.3.5.7.17)

As the second generator of hemimean, 28/25, is close to 19/17, and as the latter is the mediant of 10/9 and 9/8, it is natural to extend hemimean to the 2.3.5.7.17.19 subgroup by tempering out their difference 476/475, or equivalently stated, the semiparticular (5/4)/(19/17)2 = 1445/1444. Notice 3136/3125 = (476/475)⋅(2128/2125) and that 2128/2125 = (1216/1215)⋅(1701/1700), so it makes sense to temper out 1216/1215 and/or 1701/1700 as well. An interesting tuning not in the optimal ET sequence is 111edo. This temperament finds the harmonic 17 and 19 at (+5, +1) and (+5, +2), respectively, with virtually no additional error.

The S-expression-based comma list for the 2.3.5.7.17.19-subgroup extension is {S16/S18, S17/S19, S18/S20(, (S16⋅S17)/(S19⋅S20) = (S16/S18)⋅(S17/S19)⋅(S18/S20))}.
