Trisatho comma
The tridecapyth comma (monzo: [28 -20 0 0 0 1⟩, ratio: 3489660928/3486784401), also described as the tridecimal schisma, is an unnoticeable comma in 13-limit just intonation which measures roughly 1.43 ¢. It is the interval by which 13/8 exceeds a stack of twenty perfect fifths (3/2) octave reduced, and by which 16/13 falls short of a stack of four Pythagorean limmas (256/243). It is perhaps more easily conceptualized as reaching 13/4 through (9/8)10. In terms of commas, it is the amount by which tridecimal quartertone (1053/1024) is greater than a stack of two Pythagorean commas.
Etymology
This comma was named by Aura in 2021.
