FORMULA
prime(a(n)) = A053607(n).
EXAMPLE
Primes 18 and 19 are 61 and 67, and the interval (62, 63, 64, 65, 66) contains the prime-power 64, so 18 is in the sequence.

CROSSREFS
The interval from A008864(n) to A006093(n+1) has A046933(n) elements.
For powers of 2 instead of primes see A013597, A014210, A014234, A244508, A304521.
The corresponding primes are A053607.
The nearest prime-power before prime(n)-1 is A065514, difference A377289.
These are the positions of positive terms in A080101, or terms >1 in A366833.
The nearest prime-power after prime(n)+1 is A345531, difference A377281.
For no prime-powers we have A377286.
For exactly one prime-power we have A377287.
For exactly two prime-powers we have A377288, primes A053706.
A000015 gives the least prime-power >= n.
A000040 lists the primes, differences A001223.
A000961 lists the powers of primes, differences A057820.
A031218 gives the greatest prime-power <= n.
A246655 lists the prime-powers not including 1, complement A361102.
