Formulae for Askey-Wilson moments and enumeration of staircase tableaux

We explain how the moments of the (weight function of the) Askey-Wilson polynomials are related to the enumeration of the staircase tableaux introduced by the first and fourth authors. This gives us a direct combinatorial formula for these moments, which is related to, but more elegant than the form...
