Baby Monster
In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the baby monster group B (or, more simply, the baby monster) is a sporadic simple group of order
4,154,781,481,226,426,191,177,580,544,000,000
= 241 · 313 · 56 · 72 · 11 · 13 · 17 · 19 · 23 · 31 · 47
= 20! · 6!2 · 4! · 212 · 23 · 31 · 47
≈ 4×1033.
B is one of the 26 sporadic groups and has the second highest order of these, with the highest order being that of the monster group. The double cover of the baby monster is the centralizer of an element of order 2 in the monster group. The outer automorphism group of B is trivial and the Schur multiplier of B has order 2.
