COMMENT

Equivalently primes of the form 2n^2 - 2n - 1. a(n)==3 (mod 4).

Equivalently primes p such that 2p+3 is square.

The sequence "primes of the form p=2n(n+3)+3 such that 2^(p-1)+3 is not prime" results in the same set of terms except for the initial 3. - Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Jan 03 2009; M. F. Hasler, Jan 07 2009; R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Jan 14 2009.

FORMULA
