By sextating, or leaving but a sixth part of Gog, is signified the total destruction of every truth derived from good in such a church.1883, Thomas Goyder et al., The Science of Correspondences Elucidated, 6th edition, page 450:
De Toni’s placing the quadrate form in Amphitetras and the sextate in Nothoceratium is of course indefensible.1907, Albert Mann, Percy Leroy Ricker, Report on the Diatoms of the Albatross Voyages in the Pacific Ocean, 1888–1904, page 293:
The room temperature magnetic moments of these complexes were determined by the Gouy method and the values are in the range 5.7—5.9 B.M. (Table), indicative of the presence of five unpaired electrons and the sextate ground state level in these complexes.1967, Journal of the Indian Chemical Society, XLIV:ii, page 990:
sextate
noun
Etymology Latin sextus (“sixth”) + English -ate; compare quintate, septimate, and decimate
Mössbauer spectrum of pure γ− Fe₂O₃ (figure-1) shows a broadened sextate due to the presence of two subspectra.1981, Proceedings of the Indian National Science Academy: Physical sciences, I, page 199:
The spectrum could be best fitted with one sextate having broad lines which indicate the presence of more than one crystallographically nonequivalent iron sites.1987, Minoru Takahashi et al., editors, Proceedings of the International Symposium on Physics of Magnetic Materials, Sendai, Japan, April 8–11, 1987, page 392:
