In mathematics, a Smarandache–Wellin number is an integer that in a given base is the concatenation of the first n prime numbers written in that base.
Smarandache–Wellin numbers are named after Florentin Smarandache and Paul R. Wellin.
The fourth is 355 digits long: it is the result of concatenating the first 128 prime numbers, through 719.
[1] The primes at the end of the concatenation in the Smarandache–Wellin primes are The indices of the Smarandache–Wellin primes in the sequence of Smarandache–Wellin numbers are: The 1429th Smarandache–Wellin number is a probable prime with 5719 digits ending in 11927, discovered by Eric W. Weisstein in 1998.
In March 2009, Weisstein's search showed the index of the next Smarandache–Wellin prime (if one exists) is at least 22077.
