COMMENT

For n>0, a(n) is the smallest prime p>3 such that 3^n*p but not 3^(n-1)*p is a solution to 10^x==1 (mod x). A014950 gives solutions of this equation. It's obvious that if n is a term of A014950 then 3n is also a term of A014950. So according to the definition of a(n), for each m>n-1, 3^m*a(n) is in the sequence A014950.
a(12)>10^10, a(13)>10^10, a(14)=86093443.

EXAMPLE
|
p=333667 is the smallest prime such that multiplicative order of 10 modulo p is 3^2, so a(2)=333667.
