transversal, width 4

0.2em

The transversal patterns are quite similar to the longitudinal patterns, except for the fact that the width 4 pattern can be stretched out to an arbitrary length and can acquire tail fins, which are capable of supporting a trailing plume. The longer of two tail fins must project an additional two cells, but a single cell projection is capable of generating interesting structures of period two which are outside the present analysis.
