COMMENTS
Or, number of Moore families on an n-set, that is, families of subsets that contain the universal set {1,...,n} and are closed under intersection.
Or, number of closure operators on a set of n elements.
An ACI algebra or semilattice is a system with a single binary, idempotent, commutative and associative operation.
Also the number of set-systems on n vertices that are closed under union. The BII-numbers of these set-systems are given by A326875. - Gus Wiseman, Jul 31 2019

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} C(n, k)*A102894(k), where C(n, k) is the binomial coefficient.
For asymptotics see A102897.
a(n) = A102897(n)/2. - Gus Wiseman, Jul 31 2019
EXAMPLE
From Gus Wiseman, Jul 31 2019: (Start)
The a(0) = 1 through a(2) = 7 set-systems closed under union:
{} {} {}
{{1}} {{1}}
{{2}}
{{1,2}}
{{1},{1,2}}
{{2},{1,2}}
{{1},{2},{1,2}}
(End)

CROSSREFS
For set-systems closed under union:
- The covering case is A102894.
- The unlabeled case is A193674.
- The case also closed under intersection is A306445.
- Set-systems closed under overlapping union are A326866.
- The BII-numbers of these set-systems are given by A326875.
