If several twin crystal parts are aligned by the same twin law they are referred to as multiple or repeated twins. If these multiple twins are aligned in parallel they are called polysynthetic twins. When the multiple twins are not parallel they are cyclic twins. Albite, calcite, and pyrite often show polysynthetic twinning.
Extended Wulff constructions refers to a number of different ways to model the structure of nanoparticles as well as larger mineral crystals, and as such can be used to understand both the shape of certain gemstones or crystals with twins.as well as in other areas such as how nanoparticles play a role in the commercial production of chemicals using heterogeneous catalysts.

The paradoxical aspect of the twins' situation arises from the fact that at any given moment the travelling twin's clock is running slow in the earthbound twin's inertial frame, but based on the relativity principle one could equally argue that the earthbound twin's clock is running slow in the travelling twin's inertial frame.
