%N Denominator triangle for hydrogen spectrum rationals.

%C The corresponding numerator triangle is A120072.

%C See A120072 and A120070 for more details.

%H G. C. Greubel, <a href="/A120073/b120073.txt">Rows n = 2..50 of the triangle, flattened</a>

%H Wofdieter Lang, <a href="/A120072/a120072.txt">First ten rows, rationals and more</a>.

%F a(m,n) = denominator(r(m,n)) with r(m,n) = 1/n^2 - 1/m^2, m>=2, n=1..m-1.

%e For the rational triangle see W. Lang link.
