%H Travis Sherman, <a href="http://math.arizona.edu/~rta/001/sherman.travis/series.pdf">Summation of Glaisher- and Apery-like Series</a>, University of Arizona, May 23 2000, p. 10, (3.43) - (3.47).

%F a(n) = (f2(n-1)/8)*Product_{k=0..n-2} (2*k-1)^2 where f2(n) corresponds to the y values such that Sum_{k>=0} 1/(binomial(2*k,k)*(2*k+(2*n-1))) = x*Pi*sqrt(3) - y. (See examples for connection with a(n) in terms of material at Links section).

%e Examples ((3.43) - (3.47)) at page 10 in Links section as follows, respectively.

%e For n=1, f2(1) = 0, so a(2) = 0.

%e For n=2, f2(2) = 8, so a(3) = 1.

%e For n=3, f2(3) = 400/9, so a(4) = 50.

%e For n=4, f2(4) = 16072/75, so a(5) = 6027.

%e For n=5, f2(5) = 3602528/3675, so a(6) = 1350948.
