FORMULA
a(n) ~ 2^(3/4) * exp(G*n*(n+1)/Pi), where G is Catalan's constant A006752. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 14 2021
MATHEMATICA
Table[Product[4*Sin[(2*j - 1)*Pi/n]^2 + 4*Sin[(2*k - 1)*Pi/(n+1)]^2, {k, 1, n+1}, {j, 1, n}]^(1/4), {n, 0, 15}] // Round (* Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 14 2021 *)
PROG
(PARI) default(realprecision, 120);
a(n) = round(prod(j=1, n, prod(k=1, n+1, 4*sin((2*j-1)*Pi/n)^2+4*sin((2*k-1)*Pi/(n+1))^2))^(1/4));
