Cis-mirrored dove is a 18-cell strict still life consisting of two mutually stabilising doves. It is one of six ways in which two doves 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 dove is the eighty-ninth most common object on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue.[1] In odd orthogonal symmetries (D2_+1, D2_+2, D4_+1, D8_+1), it is the twentieth through twenty-fifth most common object, with the exact ranking depending on the specific symmetry.
Despite wings being more common than doves, the cis-mirrored dove is slightly more common than the cis-mirrored wing; this is true in both asymmetric and symmetric soups.
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.
