R2t

Robert P. Munafo, 2008 Mar 11.

R2t is the point -2+0i, the tip or westernmost point in the Mandelbrot Set.

The islands along the real axis become very very small as one approaches R2t, and they are surrounded by very linear filaments. For a discussion of them, with formulas and pictures, see Utter West.
