Riesel
Prime Search
The "Riesel Prime Search" project is searching for
Riesel primes k*2^n-1, k>1.
We have three subprojects as follows.
(1) k's that can produce many primes in the given range of exponent
n,
(2) low-weight k's that produce a very small number of primes
[opposite to (1) above],
(3) small k < 300 (with exception of those k's already reserved by
other projects).
How To Join
Everybody is welcome to join the project. Just visit the
forum, have a look what's going
on, and reserve your first file to test!
Software Used
Primality Testing: Almost exclusivelly LLR, with some people
testing PRP. For small exponents (less than 10k or 20k) pfgw and
Proth.exe are used too.
Sieving: NewPGen by individuals, ksieve in team sieving. At least
one person is using ProthSieve.
