COMMENT

All primes were found by Mathematica's PrimeQ function and proved using Proth's theorem. The ratio of consecutive terms is about 1.93.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=1 because 3 is the only Proth prime for n=1. a(2)=2 because 5 and 13 are the only primes for n=2. a(3)=1 because 41 is the only prime for n=3.
