A125042 Primes of the form 48k+17 generated recursively. Initial prime is 17. General term is a(n)=Min {p is prime; p divides (2Q)^8 + 1; Mod[p,48]=17}, where Q is the product of previous terms in the sequence. 0

COMMENTS
All prime divisors of (2Q)^8 + 1 are congruent to 1 modulo 16.
At least one prime divisor of (2Q)^8 + 1 is congruent to 2 modulo 3 and hence to 17 modulo 48.
The first two terms are the same as those of A125040.

EXAMPLE
a(3) = 33000748370307713 is the smallest prime divisor congruent to 17 mod 48 of (2Q)^8 + 1 = 45820731194492299767895461612240999140120699535617 = 5136468762577 * 33000748370307713 * 270317134666005456817, where Q = 17 * 47441.
