%N Vandermonde determinant of the first n triangular numbers.

%C Each term divides its successor, as in A203310.

%H G. C. Greubel, <a href="/A203309/b203309.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..31</a>

%F a(n) ~ 2^(n*(n + 5)/2 - 7/24) * Pi^((n-1)/2) * n^(n^2 - n/2 - 37/24) / (sqrt(A) * exp(n*(3*n - 1)/2 - 1/24)), where A is the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant A074962. - _Vaclav Kotesovec_, Jan 25 2019

%F From _G. C. Greubel_, Aug 29 2023: (Start)

%F a(n) = (2^(n+3)/Pi)^(n/2)*BarnesG(n+1)*BarnesG(n+3/2)/(Gamma(n+ 2)*BarnesG(3/2)).

%F a(n) = (1/2)^binomial(n,2)*(BarnesG(n+1))^2*Product_{k=2..n} binomial(2*k, k+1).

%F a(n) = Product_{k=1..n-1} k!*(2*k+2)!/(2^k*(k+2)!). (End)
