FORMULA

G.f.: ((2*R+1)/3-sqrt(R*(R+2)/3))/(2*x) where R=sqrt(1-12*x); a(n) is asymptotic to sqrt(3/2)*12^n/(n^(5/4)*GAMMA(3/4)) - Pab Ter (pabrlos2(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 07 2005

MAPLE

R:=sqrt(1-12*x): seq(coeff(convert(series(((2*R+1)/3-sqrt(R*(R+2)/3))/(2*x), x, 50), polynom), x, n), n=1..25); (Pab Ter)
