%N Numbers m such that m^2 is the sum of the squares of two or more consecutive primes.

%C m^2 = Sum_{i=k..j} prime(i)^2 is a square, for some k,j, j > k.

%C The 30 numbers given above are the only m values for all possible summations where the resulting m^2 < 10^14 (m <10^7). This requires searching from k values up to ~482,000, but with decreasing j-k ranges for efficiency.

%C Values of k that yield results begin: 13, 37, 101, 183, 235, 588, 805, 891, 1066, ... but do not correspond fully to the order of the m values shown.

%C Number of sequential summands (i.e., j-k+1) vary widely, with the smallest being 28 and largest being 10360, for those m values listed above.

%C Also note j-k+1 mod 8 = {0,1,4}, as expected, since prime(i)^2 mod 24 = 1, for i > 2.
