Abstract: The topic of totally separable sphere packings is surveyed with a focus on regular constructions, uniform tilings, and contact number problems. An enumeration of all regular totally separable sphere packings in $mathbb{R}^2$, $mathbb{R}^3$, and $mathbb{R}^4$ which are based on convex uniform tessellations, honeycombs, and tetracombs, respectively, is presented, as well as a construction of a family of regular totally separable sphere packings in $mathbb{R}^d$ that is not based on a convex uniform $d$-honeycomb for $dgeq3$.
