'''siffrin's p103''' is a {{period|103}} [[oscillator]] found by [[siffrin normal]] on February 21, {{year|2026}} <ref name="post225892" />. It consists of four copies of an unnamed active object and two [[tub]]s acting as [[rock]]s, and produces two internal unnamed sparks. With 68 cells, it is the smallest known period-103 oscillator, well below the 180-celled syringe-based loop.

siffrin's p103 is a period-103 oscillator found by siffrin normal on February 21, 2026.[1] It consists of four copies of an unnamed active object and four tubs acting as rocks, and produces two internal unnamed sparks. With 68 cells, it is the smallest known period-103 oscillator, well below the 180-celled syringe-based loop.

Discovery

A variant with long boats instead of tubs was found in the H4_x4 symmetry (the GPU-filtered counterpart of D4_x4), shortly after GPU searching with diagonal symmetry and 90° rotations was implemented in apgsearch.

Synthesis

On February 23, 2026, Chris857 found a 76-glider synthesis of the long boat version from the soup result, along with a synthesis of the tub version which Evin reduced to 84 gliders.[2][3][4] Chris857 further reduced the synthesis of the long boat version to 66 gliders and the tub version to 74 gliders, then to 58 gliders for the tub, long boat and barge versions.[5]
