COMMENTS
This sequence is the integer part of the omega(n)-rank content of an omega(n)-rank orthogonal simplex S(n) with axes measuring 1 + (log n)/(log p) for all primes p | n.
Let R(n) be the arrangement of row n of A162306(n) according to the order of exponents of distinct prime factors p | n. Then A010846(n) is the content of a rank omega(n) Hauy construction where the numbers are placed in omega(n) dimensional cubes, while S(n) is the corresponding simplex.
Conjecture: A010846(k) - a(k) approaches 0 as k increases toward infinity, for k with omega(k) > 1 that have the same squarefree kernel r. Therefore, the difference is most significant for composite squarefree k.
Observation: A008479(n) < a(n) <= A010846(n).

FORMULA
a(n) = A010846(n) = A008479(n) + 1 = 2 for n such that omega(n) = 1.
EXAMPLE
Let b = A010846.
a(6) = 4 since the floor of the area of a right triangle with axial edge lengths {1+log_p 6 : p | 6} = {3.58496..., 2.63093...}, a(6) = floor(9.43178.../2) = 4. b(6) = 5.
a(10) = 5 since the floor of the area of a right triangle with axial edge lengths {1+log_p 12 : p | 12} = {4.32193..., 2.43068...}, a(10) = floor(10.5052.../2) = 5. b(10) = 6.
a(30) = 12 since the floor of the volume of a trirectangular tetrahedron with axial edge lengths {1+log_p 30 : p | 30} = {5.90689..., 4.0959..., 3.11328...}, a(30) = floor(75.3229.../6) = 12. b(30) = 18.
a(210) = 34 since the floor of the content of a 4-simplex with a vertex with orthogonal edges at origin and axial edge lengths {1+log_p 210 : p | 210} = {8.71425..., 5.86715..., 4.32234..., 3.74787...}, a(210) = floor(828.248.../24) = 12. b(210) = 68, etc.
