COMMENTS
We may coin them "prime triangulars". Certainly there are an infinity of them.
FORMULA
a(10000) = 1085943106 = A000217(46603).
MATHEMATICA
nn = 200; tri = Table[n (n + 1)/2, {n, nn}]; t = {}; Do[i = 2; While[i < n && Mod[tri[[n]], tri[[i]]] > 0, i++]; If[i == n, AppendTo[t, tri[[n]]]], {n, nn}]; t (* T. D. Noe, Jun 20 2013 *)
