COMMENTS

The "metallic" constants A001622, A014176 etc. are defined inserting a= 1, 2, 3, 4,... etc into (a+sqrt(a^2+4))/2. [Stakhov & Aranson] - R. J. Mathar, Feb 14 2011

This is the length/width ratio of a 5-extension rectangle; see A188640 where the metallic constants are defined for rational numbers.  [From Clark Kimberling, Apr 09 2011]
