Does lim q(n)/a(n+1) converge?
The Prime Number Theorem implies that the limit is 1. [Charles R Greathouse IV, Dec 08 2011]

FORMULA
|
a(n) = pi( 3*q(n)/2 -1 ) - pi( q(n)/2 -1 ).
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(2) = 3 primes in [3,9], 9-3 = 6 = q(2) = 3*2. a(3) = 8 primes in [15,45], 45-15 = 30 = q(3) = 5*6. a(4) = 38 primes in [105,315], 315-105 = 210 = q(4) = 7*30.
