Using (n+sqrt(4+n^2))/2, after the integer 1 for n=0, the reduced metallic means are b(1) = (1+sqrt(5))/2, b(2) = 1+sqrt(2), b(3) = (3+sqrt(13))/2, b(4) = 2+sqrt(5), b(5) = (5+sqrt(29))/2, b(6) = 3+sqrt(10), b(7) = (7+sqrt(53))/2, b(8) = 4+sqrt(17), b(9) = (9+sqrt(85))/2, b(10) = 5+sqrt(26), b(11) = (11+sqrt(125))/2 = (11+5*sqrt(5))/2, ... . The last value yields the radicals in a(n) or A013946.
