%N Initial prime in set of 4 consecutive primes with common difference 6.

%C Primes p such that p, p+6, p+12, p+18 are consecutive primes.

%C It is conjectured that there exist arbitrarily long sequences of consecutive primes in arithmetic progression. As of March 2013 the record is 10 primes.

%C Note that the Green and Tao reference is about arithmetic progressions that are not necessarily consecutive. - _Michael B. Porter_, Mar 05 2013

%C Subsequence of A023271. - _R. J. Mathar_, Nov 04 2006

%C All terms p == 1 (mod 10) and hence p+24 are always divisible by 5. - _Zak Seidov_, Jun 20 2015

%C Subsequence of A054800, with which is coincides up to a(24), but a(25) = A054800(26). - _M. F. Hasler_, Oct 26 2018
