Stericated 24-cell honeycomb

In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the stericated 24-cell honeycomb (or stericated 16-cell honeycomb) is a uniform space-filling honeycomb. It can be seen as a sterication of the regular 24-cell honeycomb, containing 24-cell, 16-cell, octahedral prism, tetrahedral prism, and 3-3 duoprism cells.

Alternate names

  • Stericated icositetrachoric/hexadecaachoric tetracomb/honeycomb
  • Small cellated demitesseractic tetracomb (scicot)

The [3,4,3,3], , Coxeter group generates 31 permutations of uniform tessellations, 28 are unique in this family and ten are shared in the [4,3,3,4] and [4,3,31,1] families. The alternation (13) is also repeated in other families.

gollark: Collide cows together at high speeds/energies, and observe the resulting exotic particles.
gollark: Idea: cow LINACs.
gollark: It probably froze because of trying to simulate the impact of the cows at 0, 99999, 0.
gollark: Aha, IT WORKS!
gollark: Frozen cows.
