Primes p such that 3*p+7 is a square. - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 05 2015
Primes of the forms 3*k^2 + 2*k - 2 and 3*k^2 + 4*k - 1. - Robert Israel, Nov 27 2017

EXAMPLE
k=3 contributes a term because 3*(3+2)/3 - 2 = 3 = a(1) is prime.
MAPLE
select(isprime, [seq(seq((3*j+i)*(3*j+i+2)/3-2, i=0..1), j=1..1000)]); # Robert Israel, Nov 27 2017
