The Knuth Twin Dragon is a compact subset of the plane with fractal boundary of Hausdorff dimension s = (\log \lambda)/(\log \sqrt{2}) , \lambda^{3} = \lambda^{2} + 2 . Although the intersection with a generic line has Hausdorff dimension s-1 , we prove that this does not occur for lines with rational parameters. We further describe the intersection of the Twin Dragon with the two diagonals as well as with various axis parallel lines.

... The Dragon Fractal, also called the Dragon curve, Heighway curve, or Jurassic Park Dragon, is a popular selfsimilar shape that appears in the book Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. The properties of this fractal began to be investigated by NASA physicists John Heighway, Bruce Banks and William Harter and were described by Martin Gardner in the American scientific column Mathematical Games in 1967 (Großkopf, 2020;Kamiya, 2022). ...
