GIMPS has discovered a new largest known prime number: 2^82589933-1 (24,862,048 digits)

A titan, as defined by Samuel Yates, is anyone who has found a titanic prime. This page provides data on those that have found these primes. The data below only reflect on the primes currently on the list. (Many of the terms that are used here are explained on another page.)

Discovering twin primes on my my personal PC, a Pentium II 300. I also partipated in the GIMPS research project. I proved that 4 Mersenne exponents were not prime (between 7.3 million and 8.1 million), i,e, M7375513, M7510183, M7735279 & M8154347. BUT, alas, all 4 would break the record M692..., the odds were 15,000 to 1 !!!
