[QUOTE=JeppeSN;539859]What ranges was Propper searching, and did he keep the residues of all the composite candidates he must have covered? This information could be useful to PrimeGrid which is planning to search and double-check (at least a part of) these Proth number regions, see [URL="https://www.primegrid.com/stats_div_llr.php"]https://www.primegrid.com/stats_div_llr.php[/URL].

There is already a newer and bigger one, [URL="https://primes.utm.edu/primes/page.php?id=130806"]9*2^13334487 + 1[/URL]. He has found 9 huge Proth primes with k in { 9, 11, 13 } in the month of March.

9 *10^583696 + 1 :)

This has been my lucky weekend (just yesterday, I found a T5K prime for CRUS):

26*3^1435875+1 may be prime, but N divides 3^((N-1)/3))-1, restarting with a=5 Time : 1308.400 sec.
26*3^1435875+1 is prime! (685088 decimal digits) Time : 1299.598 sec.

Congratulations [B]carpetpool[/B]. It's good to see that at least some of the Top 5k contributors are nice people.:smile:
Well done!
