COMMENTS

Number of ZnS molecules in cluster of n layers in zinc blend crystal.

The Kn4 triangle sums of the Connell-Pol triangle A159797 lead to the sequence given above. For the definitions of the Kn4 and other triangle sums see A180662. [From Johannes W. Meijer, May 20 2011]

If one generated primtive Pythagorean triangles (2n+1, 2n+3) the collective sum of their perimeters for each n is four times the numbers listed in this sequence. [From J. M. Bergot, Jul 18 2011]
