A hexacosichoron is a four-dimensional regular polychoron with 600 cells, each of which is a tetrahedron. There are five cells to each edge and twenty to each vertex. It is called a hydrochoron under the elemental system, and its Bowers name is ex.
Structure and Subfacets[]
The hexacosichoron has 600 cells. These are joined twenty to a vertex in an icosahedral formation.
Related polychora[]
The hexacosichoron, do to yielding regular icosahedra under vertices, possesses many unit-edged diminishings. Two of these are uniform polychora. The grand antiprism can be made by diminishing two orthogonal decagonal sets of vertices, while the snub icositetrachoron can be made ty diminishing 24 vertices forming an icositetrachoron. Many other diminishing have only unit edges.
Vertex coordinate[]
