a(n)=D is the smallest distance (D) between 2 non-overlapping prime-twins differing by d=2n; these twins are [p,p+d] or [p+D,p+D+d] and p>3.

For d=D the quadruple of primes becomes a triple: [p,p+d],[p+d,p+2d].
Without the p>3 condition, a(1)=2.
The starter prime p, is followed by a prime d-pattern of [d,D-d,d], where D-d=a(n)-2n is 4,2 or 0; these d-patterns are as follows: [2,4,2], [4,2,4], [6,6], [8,4,8], [10,2,10], [12,12], etc.

EXAMPLE
|
n=5, d=2n=10, the minimal distance for 10-twins is 12 (see A031928, d=10) the smallest term in A053323. It occurs first between twins of [409,419] and [421,431]; see 409 = A052354(1) = A052376(1) = A052381(5).
