%C Is this the same sequence as A123854? - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 21 2007

%C Almost certainly this is the same as A123854. - _Michael Somos_, Aug 23 2007

%C Asymptotic expansion of Gamma(N/2) / Gamma((N-1)/2) = (N/2)^(1/2) * (c(0) + c(1)/N + c(2)/N^2 + ... ). a(n) = denominator(c(n)). - _Michael Somos_, Aug 23 2007
