• Rectified hexeract (acronym: rax) (Jonathan Bowers)

The rectified 6-cube may be constructed from the 6-cube by truncating its vertices at the midpoints of its edges.

The Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of the rectified 6-cube with edge length √2 are all permutations of:

${\displaystyle (0,\ \pm 1,\ \pm 1,\ \pm 1,\ \pm 1,\ \pm 1)}$
