The swirlprismatodiminished rectified icositetrachoron or spidrico is an isogonal polychoron with 24 chiral rectified triangular prisms, 24 triangular prisms, 24 triangular antiprisms, and 72 vertices. 3 chiral rectified triangular prisms, 2 triangular antiprisms, and 2 triangular prisms join at each vertex. It can be constructed by removing the 24 vertices of an inscribed icositetrachoron of edge length from a rectified icositetrachoron. In doing so the cuboctahedral cells have 3 vertices removed, while the cubes have 2 opposite corners removed and additional triangular prisms come in as the original's vertex figures.

The ratio between the longest and shortest edges is 1: ≈ 1:1.41421.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

Coordinates for the vertices of a swirlprismatodiminished rectified icositetrachoron of circumradius , centered at the origin, are given by:
