COMMENTS
Decimal expansion of -B =(1/2)*sum(r in Z, 1/r/(1-r)) where Z is the set of zeros of the Riemann zeta function which lie in the strip 0 <= Re(z) <= 1.
According to Gun, Murty, & Rath (2018), it is not even known whether this constant is rational or not (though see Theorem 3.1), though they show that it is transcendental under Schanuel’s conjecture. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 12 2021
