COMMENTS
Discriminant is 24. Class is 2. Binary quadratic forms a*x^2 + b*x*y + c*y^2 have discriminant d = b^2 - 4ac and gcd(a, b, c) = 1.
Also primes of form 6*u^2 - v^2. The transformation {u, v} = {y, x - 2*y} yields the form in the title. - Juan Arias-de-Reyna, Mar 19 2011

This is also the list of primes p such that p = 2 or p is congruent to 5 or 23 mod 24 - Jean-François Alcover, Oct 28 2016

EXAMPLE
a(4) = 29 because we can write 29 = -1^2 + 4*1*3 + 2*3^2 (or 29 = 5*1^2 + 8*1*2 + 2*2^2).
