Summary: A palstar is a concatenation of even-length palindromes. We show that, asymptotically, there are \(\Theta(\alpha_k^n)\) palstars of length \(2n\) over a \(k\)-letter alphabet, where \(\alpha_k\) is a constant such that \(2k-1 \alpha_k 2k-{1 \over 2}\). In particular, \(\alpha_2\doteq 3.33513193\).
