concentricity

/kɑnsəntɹˈɪsᵻɾi/ noun

The condition of being concentric.

Word Origin Concentricity is the quality of being concentric — having the same center. From con- 'together' + centrum 'center' + -ic + -ity. Centrum is from Greek kentron 'sharp point', from PIE *kent- 'to prick'. So concentric circles share a central point. Eccentricity is the opposite: ex- 'out' + centrum, off-center. Concentricity is a noun form of concentric, like electricity from electric.
