Trans-long³ hook with tail is an 11-cell still life.

This still life is comprised of the normally unstable long³ hook with a normally unstable tail attached. This is one of two possible isomers, named trans due to the corner part of the hook being farther from the tail; the other isomer, cis-long³ hook with tail, has this corner part slightly closer.

Occurrence

See also: List of common still lifes, Most common objects on Catagolue

It is the third rarest 11-cell still life out of 46. It is 20 times as rare as the trans-very long hook with tail and 16 times as common as the trans-long⁴ hook with tail.

This still life does not occur in final patterns of collisions in octohash, octo3obj or octo3g databases.

Glider synthesis

Main article: Glider synthesis

This still life is known to be constructible with 5 gliders. Some known syntheses can be found in Mark Niemiec's database. A 6-glider synthesis was found by Goldtiger997 in March 2021, and a 5-glider synthesis was discovered in March 2023.
