Editing 600-cell (section)

===== Hexagons =====
The [[24-cell#Cell rings|fibrations of the 24-cell]] include 4 fibrations of its 16 great hexagons: 4 fiber bundles of 4 great hexagons. The 4 Clifford parallel hexagons in each bundle are completely disjoint. Adjacent parallel hexagons are spanned by edges of other great hexagons.
Each fiber bundle delineates 4 helical rings of 6 octahedral cells each, with three rings nesting together around each hexagon.
Each octahedral cell occupies only one cell ring in each of the 4 fibrations.
The octahedral cell contributes 3 of its 12 edges to 3 different Clifford parallel hexagons in each fibration, but contributes each edge to three distinct cell rings in the fibration.

The 600-cell contains 25 24-cells, and can be seen (10 different ways) as a compound of 5 disjoint 24-cells.{{Efn|name=24-cells bound by pentagonal fibers}}
It has 10 fibrations of its 200 great hexagons: 10 fiber bundles of 20 great hexagons. The 20 Clifford parallel hexagons in each bundle are completely disjoint. Adjacent parallel hexagons are spanned by edges of great decagons.{{Efn|name=equi-isoclinic hexagons}} Each fiber bundle delineates 20 helical rings of 6 octahedral cells each, with three rings nesting together around each hexagon. 
The Hopf map of this fibration is the [[dodecahedron]], where the 20 vertices each lift to a bundle of great hexagons.{{Sfn|Sadoc|2001|pp=576-577|loc=§2.4 Discretising the fibration for the {3, 3, 5} polytope: the six-fold screw axis}}
Each octahedral cell occupies only one of the 20 6-octahedron rings in each of the 10 fibrations.
The 20 6-octahedron rings belong to 5 disjoint 24-cells of 4 6-octahedron rings each; each hexagonal fibration of the 600-cell consists of 5 disjoint 24-cells.
