Description: Study of the level curve for the real part of $η(s)=0$ with $η(s)=π^{-s/2}Γ(s/2)ζ^\prime(s)$ gives a new classification of the zeros of $ζ(s)$ and of $ζ^\prime(s)$. We conjecture that for type 2 zeros, $\liminf (β^\prime -1/2)\logγ^\prime = 0$ if and only if $\liminf (γ^+-γ^-)\log γ^\prime=0$, and reduce the conjecture to a lower bound on the curvature of the level curve. We compute and classify $10^6$ zeros of $ζ^\prime(s)$ near $T=10^{10}$. The Riemann Hypothesis is assumed throughout. An appendix develops the analogous classification for characteristic polynomials of unitary matrices.
