%N Decimal expansion of (1/Pi)*arccos(1/sqrt(3)).

%C Known to be irrational. If m is a positive integer (1/Pi)*arccos(1/sqrt(m)) is rational iff m=1,2 or 4.

%C A constant giving the location (x = y) of the thermodynamic center (also called warmest point or "hot spot") of a unit isosceles right triangle. The thermodynamic center is the warmest point in a convex heat conductor with unitary initial temperature and with boundary grounded at zero temperature. The convex heat conductor here considered is the isosceles right triangle x>0, y>0, x+y <= 1. - _Jean-François Alcover_, Jul 26 2016

%F 0 < x < 1/2 maximizing sin(Pi x)*sin(2Pi x), that is x = arctan(sqrt(2)) / Pi, solution to sin(Pi x) = 3 sin(3 Pi x). - _Jean-François Alcover_, Jul 26 2016
