%S 1,5,5,5,5365,205,1885,117925,3445,97,2225,62530,284345,461,146605

%N Numerators of the squared radii of the smallest enclosing circles of n points with integer coordinates and distinct mutual distances, arranged such that the radius of their enclosing circle is minimized. Denominators are given in A193556.

%C Finding optimal solutions of this problem has been the topic of a round of Al Zimmermann's programming contests from July to October 2009, entitled "Point Packing".

%C Conjectured next terms are a(17)/A193556(17)=19720/121, a(18)/A193556(18)=5002/25.
