COMMENTS
The associated coefficient of a hypergraph is the weight assigned to it in the generalized Harary-Sachs formula (arxiv link to be posted). For example, the 2-uniform simplex is a triangle and a(2) = 2. Famously the codegree 3 coefficient of the adjacency characteristic polynomial of a graph is -a(2)(# of triangles in G). The quantity a(n)=C_n as mentioned in Cooper and Dutle wherein the authors computed the values up to n=5.

FORMULA
Let P(n,2) denote the set of partitions of n where each part is of size at least 2. Let L(p) denote the length of p, let p(i) denote the size of part i of p, and let V(p,i) denote the number of parts of p which have size i. For p in P(n,2) let f(n,p)= n!/((Product_{i=1..L(p)} p(i))(Product_{i=2..n}V(p,i)). Then a(n) = (1/((n-1)*(n+1)^2))*Sum_{p in P(n+1,2)}(f(n+1,p)*Product_{i=1 .. L(p)}(n^(p(i)) + (-1)^(p(i)+1))).
a(n) = exp(n*log(n)(2+o(1)).
