A Russell set is a set which can be written as the union of a countable pairwise disjoint set of pairs no infinite subset of which has a choice function and a Russell cardinal is the cardinal number of a Russell set. We show that if a Russell cardinal a has a ternary partition (see Section 1, Definition 2) then the Russell cardinal a + 2 fails to have such a partition. In fact, we prove that if a ZF-model contains a Russell set, then it contains Russell sets with ternary partitions as well as Russell...
