COMMENTS
The terms are always squares (because the divisors of a nonsquare N come in pairs, d and N/d, and so their number is always even - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 26 2018).

FORMULA
a(n) = Min{k | A000005(k)=2n-1}.
a((p+1)/2) = 2^(p-1) for odd prime p. [Corrected by Jianing Song, Aug 30 2021]
From Jianing Song, Aug 30 2021: (Start)
a(n) = A016017(n)^2.
a(n) <= 2^(2n-2), where the equality holds if and only if n=1 or 2n-1 is prime. (End)
EXAMPLE
For n=15, a(15)=144 with 15 divisors: 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,16,18,24,36,48,72 and 144.
