%N Numbers n such that 3n-2 and 3n+2 are both prime.

%C Barycenter of cousin primes (A029708; see also A029710, A023200, A046132), divided by 3. When p>3 and p+4 both are prime, then p = 1 (mod 6) and p+2 = 3 (mod 6). - _M. F. Hasler_, Jan 14 2013

%H Robert Israel, <a href="/A157834/b157834.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%F Intersection of A024893 and A153183.

%F a(n) = A029708(n)/3. - _Zak Seidov_, Aug 07 2009

%F a(n) = A056956(n)*2+1 = (A029710(n)+2)/3 = (A023200(n+1)+2)/3. - _M. F. Hasler_, Jan 14 2013

%e 15*3 +/- 2 = 43,47 (both prime).

%p select(t -> isprime(3*t+2) and isprime(3*t-2), [seq(t,t=3..1000,2)]); # _Robert Israel_, May 28 2017
