Formula

The n-volume of the unit regular n-simplex is sqrt(n+1)/(n!*2^(n/2)), so a(n) = n! * 2^(n/2) / A000188(n+1) for even n and n! * 2^((n-1)/2) / A000188((n+1)/2) for odd n. It's easy to see that a(n) is an integer.

Example

  n |  the n-volume of the
    | unit regular n-simplex
  2 |  sqrt(3)/4 = A120011
  3 |  sqrt(2)/12 = A020829
  4 |  sqrt(5)/96 = A364895
  5 |  sqrt(3)/480
  6 |  sqrt(7)/5760
  7 |        1/20160
  8 |        1/215040
  9 |  sqrt(5)/5806080

Prog

(PARI) A000188(n) = sqrtint(n/core(n));
a(n) = n! * if(n%2, 2^((n-1)/2)/A000188((n+1)/2), 2^(n/2)/A000188(n+1))
