Let P1, P2, P3, P4 be consecutive primes, with P2 - P1 = P4 - P3 = 2. a(n) = (P1 + P2)/12 for the first occurrence of (P3 - P1)/6 = n.

%C Position of first occurrence of a gap of length P3 - P2 = 6*n - 2 containing no primes, bounded by twin primes (P1,P2) below and (P3,P4) above.

%e a(4) = 1573, because the 4 primes P1 = 6*1573 - 1 = 9437, P2 = 6*1573 + 1 = 9439, P3 = P1 + 6*4 = 9461, P4 = 9463 produce the first occurrence of the gap P3 - P2 = 9461 - 9439 = 6*4 - 2 = 22. See also example in A329164.
