FORMULA
G.f.: 16/(1+sqrt(1-12x))^4.
a(n)=((8n+12)/(3n+12))((3n+3)/(n+3))3^n*C(n+1).
Conjecture: (n+4)*a(n) - 6*(3*n+7)*a(n-1) + 36*(2*n+1)*a(n-2) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 15 2011
From Amiram Eldar, May 15 2022: (Start)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 1479/484 - 2691*arcsin(1/(2*sqrt(3)))/(121*sqrt(11)).
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 7569*arcsinh(1/(2*sqrt(3)))/(169*sqrt(13)) - 1767/676. (End)
