COMMENTS
On Simon Plouffe's web page (and in the book freely available at Gutenberg project) the value is given with an error of +1e-31, as "...651641..." instead of "...641641...". In the reference [Wrench, 1961] cited there, these digits are correct. They are also correct on the Plouffe's Inverter page, as computed by Oliveira e Silva, who comments it took 1 hour at 200 MHz with Mathematica. Using Amiram Eldar's PARI program, the same 500 digits are computed instantly (less than 0.1 sec). - M. F. Hasler, Apr 20 2021
Named after the Austrian mathematician Emil Artin (1898-1962). - Amiram Eldar, Jun 20 2021

FORMULA
Equals Product_{j>=2} 1/Zeta(j)^A006206(j), where Zeta = A013661, A002117 etc. is Riemann's zeta function. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 14 2009
Equals Sum_{k>=1} mu(k)/(k*phi(k)), where mu is the Moebius function (A008683) and phi is the Euler totient function (A000010). - Amiram Eldar, Mar 11 2020
Equals 1/A065488. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 17 2021
