[For the entire collection see Zbl 0726.00009.] A Mendelsohn triple systems of order \(v\) is a pair \((S,B)\), where \(S\) is a set of \(v\) elements and \(B\) is a collection of cyclic triples \(\langle x,y,z\rangle\), where \(x\), \(y\), \(z\) are distinct elements of \(S\) such that every ordered pair of distinct elements is either \((x,y)\) or \((y,z)\) or \((z,x)\). If further \(\langle a,b,x\rangle\in B\Leftrightarrow\langle b,a,x\rangle\in B\) and \(\langle a,x,y\rangle\in B\Leftrightarrow\langle b,y,x\rangle\in B\) (\(x,y\in S\backslash\{a,b\}\)) then it is called symmetric Mendelsohn triple system. Two systems are called disjoint if they have no cyclic triple in common. A pairwise disjoint \(v-2\) systems is called a large set of triple systems. Constructions of large sets of these triple systems are given in this paper.
