COMMENTS
Nesterenko proves that this constant is transcendental (he cites Chudnovsky as the first to show this); in fact it is algebraically independent of Pi and exp(sqrt(3)*Pi) over Q. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 11 2013

FORMULA
this * A073006 = A186706. - R. J. Mathar, Jan 15 2021
From Amiram Eldar, Jun 25 2021: (Start)
Equals 2^(7/9) * Pi^(1/3) * K((sqrt(3)-1)/(2*sqrt(2)))^(1/3)/3^(1/12), where K is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind.
Equals 2^(7/9) * Pi^(2/3) /(AGM(2, sqrt(2+sqrt(3)))^(1/3) * 3^(1/12)), where AGM is the arithmetic-geometric mean. (End)
From Andrea Pinos, Aug 12 2023: (Start)
Equals Integral_{x=0..oo} 3*exp(-(x^3)) dx = 3*A202623.
General result: Gamma(1/n) = Integral_{x=0..oo} n*exp(-(x^n)) dx. (End)
