Cis-barge with nine is a 12-cell still life.

This still life is comprised of the normally stable barge with a normally unstable nine attached. This is one of two possible isomers, named cis due to the far end of the barge being closer to the nine; the other isomer, trans-barge with nine, has the far end facing outwards.

It can be substitutively referred to as the integral with cis-barge, with one pre-block of the integral sign replaced with a barge, however "cis-barge with nine" is usually preferred for this object.

Among the 121 still lifes with 12 cells, this is the 53rd most common still life according to Catagolue.

A 5-glider synthesis of this still life was found in January 2020.[1]
