%N Non-palindromic balanced primes in base 3.

%C A number is called "balanced" here if the sum of digits weighted by their arithmetic distance from the "center" of the number is zero. Palindromic primes (A029971) are "trivially" balanced, so they are excluded here.

%C These are the primes in A256083, respectively the intersection of A000040 and A256083.

%e a(7) = 1471 as 1471 is prime and 2000111 in base 3, which is balanced: 3*2 = 1*1 + 2*1 + 3*1.
