Comments

See A215238 and A215239 for prime(a(n)) and the next prime.

Equivalently stated, a(n) is least k such that there are exactly n primes between prime(k)/2 and prime(k+1)/2. - Peter Munn, May 20 2019

Example

For n = 2, the consecutive primes are 113 and 127; there are two primes between 56.5 and 63.5.  For n = 3, the consecutive primes are 1637 and 1657; there are three primes between 818.5 and 828.5.

Mathematica

t = Table[PrimePi[Prime[n+1]/2] - PrimePi[Prime[n]/2], {n, 100000}]; Flatten[Table[Position[t, n, 1, 1], {n, 0, 8}]]
