This creates a further generalization of the Flower Constellation Theory, increasing the possibilities of constellation distribution while maintaining the characteristic symmetries of the original theory in the design.2017http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/13040710.1007/s10569-017-9789-1http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/130407oai:zaguan.unizar.es:130407info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/E48info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/ESP2013-44217-RCelestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy 129 (2017), 433-448All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
