We study the quantity $\mbox{KVol}$ defined as the supremum, over all pairs of closed curves, of their algebraic intersection, divided by the product of their lengths, times the area of the surface. The surfaces we consider live in the stratum $\mathcal{H}(2)$ of translation surfaces of genus $2$, with one conical โ€ฆ
