Comments

All prime divisors of (2Q)^8 + 1 are congruent to 1 modulo 16.
At least one prime divisor of (2Q)^8 + 1 is congruent to 2 modulo 3 and hence to 17 modulo 48.
The first two terms are the same as those of A125040.

Examples

			a(3) = 33000748370307713 is the smallest prime divisor congruent to 17 mod 48 of (2Q)^8 + 1 = 45820731194492299767895461612240999140120699535617 = 5136468762577 * 33000748370307713 * 270317134666005456817, where Q = 17 * 47441.
