FORMULA
a(n) = 16^n * hypergeom([-1/2, -1/2, -n], [1, 1], -1).
a(n) ~ 2^(5*n + 1) / (Pi * n^3). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 12 2022
MAPLE
a := n -> 16^n*add(binomial(1/2, k)^2*binomial(n, k), k = 0..n):
seq(a(n), n = 0..18);
MATHEMATICA
a[n_] := 16^n * HypergeometricPFQ[{-1/2, -1/2, -n}, {1, 1}, -1]; Array[a, 19, 0] (* Amiram Eldar, Nov 12 2022 *)
