... Do you mind giving a reference? I've never heard of any experiment purporting to measure quark distribution. As I understand it, the fact that a hadron...

... The first one here is 11 around 1. So is the next one, I think. The next one is the cubeocta, isn't it. That is 12 around 1. IVM. The last two are...
Dick, thanks for jumping in. I think it's not in the current stream that the regular pentagonal dodecahedron packs 12 around one with no fudge factoring. I ...
... Here's more. See gapball on page 7 of photo album. The gaps here are the same gaps as the one's you get packing dodecas. I figured the angle in a recent...
... Yes, as long as as we play with 13 polys that are all the same shape. I think the question remains: what are those polys that fit this description? ... ...
... Dick, the cube octa (VE) packs square face to square face. This means that 6 cube octas max pack touching a nuclear 7th. The triangular faces are touched...
As opposed to the sentiment that Tell will not succeed (a ststement not supported by any facts) I rather hope he does- I think he has at least pointed the way...
JB, If you are the nuclear ball, you are touched by 12 balls. This is the same pattern I'm looking for with polyhedrons. Just as the balls are self-similar,...
I sent along my pdf on this in an earlier post. As noted, the gap is only a problem in the way the penta dodecas are arranged. The concave penta dodeca makes...
Jim, You said: "concoction in the irregular group. This won't be a familiar poly to anyone since it's the result of some recent "curved" poly studies of mine...

JB, you might find it interesting that the center or core of the concave dodecahedron is a regular icosahedron. This link shows the icosa core with the spire...
From: "Jim Lehman" <bcat@...> ... No, just regular dodecs, not twisted ones, shifted ones, or any other ones. Yours has concave dodecas, but they're...
<JB> ... I think the gaps can disappear if each system(icosa, dodeca, etc.) is twisted jitterbug fashion. Isn't that what you are in effect doing in tverse?...
