Table of n, a(n) for n=1..50.

Formula

a(n)=nextprime(2*n!+1)-2*n!, where nextprime is A151800.

Example

a(4) = 5 because 2*4!+1=49, the next prime is 51 and the difference between 53 and 48 is 13.

Mathematica

Do[If[PrimeQ[NextPrime[2*n!+1]-2*n! ], Print[n]], {n, 100}]
f[x_]:=Module[{n=2x!}, NextPrime[n+1]-n]
f/@Range[60]  (* Harvey P. Dale, Feb 14 2011 *)
