Cis-mirrored bun is a 14-cell strict still life consisting of two mutually stabilising buns. It is one of six ways in which two buns can be arranged to create a still life, and one of the five which have two separate islands.
This specific isomer is named cis-mirrored due to the two inducting faces not being skewed from each other (hence mirrored), and the "denser" parts of each island are on the same side (hence cis). As such, it is the only one of the six with mirror symmetry.
Commonness
Cis-mirrored bun is the thirty-second most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than canoe but more common than moose antlers.[1] It is also the forty-second most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.[2]
It is much more common in DryLife.
Glider synthesis
All strict still lifes with a population of 22 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 31 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
