Compound of twenty octahedra with rotational freedom
The compound of twenty octahedra with rotational freedom is a uniform polyhedron compound. It's composed of a symmetric arrangement of 20 octahedra, considered as triangular antiprisms. It can be constructed by superimposing two copies of the compound of 10 octahedra UC, and for each resulting pair of octahedra, rotating each octahedron in the pair by an equal and opposite angle "θ". When "θ" is zero or 60 degrees, the octahedra coincide in pairs yielding (two superimposed copies of) the compounds of ten octahedra UC and UC respectively. When octahedra (from distinct rotational  axes) coincide in sets four, yielding the compound of five octahedra. When the vertices coincide in pairs, yielding the compound of twenty octahedra (without rotational freedom). Cartesian coordinates. Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of this compound are all the cyclic permutations of where "τ" = (1 + )/2 is the golden ratio (sometimes written "φ").
