COMMENTS
While the first even abundant number is 12 = 2^2*3, the first odd abundant is 945 = 3^3*5*7, the 232nd abundant number!
The asymptotic density of this sequence is in the interval (0.491096, 0.491156) (based on the known bounds on the densities of A005101 and A005231; see A302991 and A322287). - Amiram Eldar, Mar 11 2024

FORMULA
a(n) = A173490(n) / 2.
EXAMPLE
The first even abundant number is 12, so 12/2 = 6 is the first element in this sequence.
