In geometry, a rectified 120-cell is a uniform 4-polytope formed as the rectification of the regular 120-cell.
E. L. Elte identified it in 1912 as a semiregular polytope, labeling it as tC120.
There are four rectifications of the 120-cell, including the zeroth, the 120-cell itself. The birectified 120-cell is more easily seen as a rectified 600-cell, and the trirectified 120-cell is the same as the dual 600-cell.
In geometry, the rectified 120-cell or rectified hecatonicosachoron is a convex uniform 4-polytope composed of 600 regular tetrahedra and 120 icosidodecahedra cells. Its vertex figure is a triangular prism, with three icosidodecahedra and two tetrahedra meeting at each vertex.

In geometry, the rectified 600-cell or rectified hexacosichoron is a convex uniform 4-polytope composed of 600 regular octahedra and 120 icosahedra cells. Each edge has two octahedra and one icosahedron. Each vertex has five octahedra and two icosahedra. In total it has 3600 triangle faces, 3600 edges, and 720 vertices. Containing the cell realms of both the regular 120-cell and the regular 600-cell, it can be considered analogous to the polyhedron icosidodecahedron, which is a rectified icosahedron and rectified dodecahedron.
In geometry, a uniform polytope of dimension three or higher is a vertex-transitive polytope bounded by uniform facets. The uniform polytopes in two dimensions are the regular polygons (the definition is different in 2 dimensions to exclude vertex-transitive even-sided polygons that alternate two different lengths of edges). This is a generalization of the older category of semiregular polytopes, but also includes the regular polytopes. Further, star regular faces and vertex figures (star polygons) are allowed, which greatly expand the possible solutions.

Un 4-polytope uniforme est, en géométrie, un 4-polytope isogonal dont les cellules sont des polyèdres uniformes. Il s'agit de l'équivalent de ces derniers en dimension 4.
