Acronym 2n/d-p
TOCID symbol t(n/d)P
Name 2n/d-prism,
2n-prism with winding number d
Circumradius sqrt[1/4+1/(4 sin2(π d/2n))]
Vertex figure [42,2n/d]
General of army if d=1:   is itself convex
if gcd(2n,d)=1: use a (stretched) 2n-p for its general
if gcd(2n,d)=2: use a (stretched) n-p for its general
Colonel of regiment (is itself locally convex)
Face vector 4n, 6n, 2n+2
Especially 2n-p (d=1)   2n/2-p (d=2)

general prisms:
n/d-p  
general polytopal classes:
Wythoffian polyhedra  

For d even it looks like a compound of two n/(d:2)-prisms (see n/d-p), and indeed vertices, edges, and {4}-faces coincide by pairs.
