FORMULA

G.f.: sum(i=1, oo, x^(i+2)/prod(j=1, i, 1-x^(2*j-1))) . - Michael Somos Aug 18 2006

EXAMPLE

A plasma partition is a partition of n into 1 distinct odd part and an even number of odd parts and at least 2 parts of 1, so looking like plasma.

E.g. a(7) counts the plasma partitions of 13, has 11+1+1 = 9+1+1 = 7+1+1+1+1 = 5+1+1+1+1+1+1 = 5+3+3+1+1 = 3+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1, so a(7)=6.

Graphically, these are;
