In five-dimensional geometry, a cantellated 5-simplex is a convex uniform 5-polytope, being a cantellation of the regular 5-simplex.

There are unique 4 degrees of cantellation for the 5-simplex, including truncations.

The cantellated 5-simplex has 60 vertices, 240 edges, 290 faces (200 triangles and 90 squares), 135 cells (30 tetrahedra, 30 octahedra, 15 cuboctahedra and 60 triangular prisms), and 27 4-faces (6 cantellated 5-cell, 6 rectified 5-cells, and 15 tetrahedral prisms).

Coordinates

The vertices of the cantellated 5-simplex can be most simply constructed on a hyperplane in 6-space as permutations of (0,0,0,1,1,2) or of (0,1,1,2,2,2). These represent positive orthant facets of the cantellated hexacross and bicantellated hexeract respectively.
