Abstract We give a complete classification of all pairs of cyclotomic polynomials whose zeros interlace on the unit circle, making explicit a result essentially contained in work of Beukers and Heckman. We show that each such pair corresponds to a single polynomial from a certain special class of integer polynomials, the 2-reciprocal discbionic polynomials. We also show that each such pair also corresponds (in four different ways) to a single Pisot polynomial from a certain restricted class, the cyclogenic Pisot polynomials. We investigate properties of this class of Pisot polynomials.
