The Aeolian dominant scale (Aeolian ♯ 3 scale), Mixolydian ♭ 6 scale, descending melodic major scale, or Hindu scale [1] [2] is the fifth mode of the ascending melodic minor scale.

The half diminished scale is a seven-note musical scale. It is more commonly known as the Locrian ♯ 2 scale [1] or the Aeolian ♭ 5 scale, names that avoid confusion with the diminished scale and the half-diminished seventh chord (minor seventh, diminished fifth). It is the sixth mode of the ascending melodic minor scale.
