A characterization: the terms of this sequence have Brazilian representations with repdigits of length = 2 and the number of these representations is beta'(n) = tau(n)/2 - 1.
Some examples (here tau(n) is the number of divisors of n):
tau(8) = 4 and 8 = 22_3, so: beta'(8) = tau(8)/2 - 1 = 1.
tau(15) = 4 and 15 = 1111_2 = 33_4, so beta'(15) = tau(15)/2 - 1 = 1.
tau(18) = 6 and 18 = 33_5 = 22_8, so beta'(18) = tau(18)/2 - 1 = 2.
tau(54) = 8 and 54 = 66_8 = 33_17 = 22_26, so beta'(54) = tau(54)/2 - 1 = 3.
