%N Successively better golden semiprimes.

%C This is lexicographically earliest sequence of such semiprimes p*q, starting from 6=2*3, that for each successive term p*q, q/p is a better approximant of Golden ratio (1+sqrt(5))/2 than the previous term. See A165569 for the exact procedure.

%C Can it be proved that this a subset of A108540?

%C The ratio A165572(n)/A165571(n) converges towards golden ratio = (1+sqrt(5))/2 = 1.618033988749895... as: 1.5, 1.6666666666666667, 1.5714285714285714, 1.631578947368421, 1.608695652173913, 1.6206896551724137, 1.6185567010309279, 1.6175637393767706, 1.6181172291296626, 1.618066561014263, 1.618063112078346, 1.618031658637302, 1.6180335296782964, 1.6180341824372995, 1.6180339327699054, ...
