Abstract

Using a computer for constructing a histogram distances between adjacent prime numbers (so-called twins of different orders) has revealed the existence of a period of the magnitude 6 between local maximum in the statistical row.  An approximate universal statistical model of the gap distribution has been obtained by the normalization. The obtained results can be applied for acceleration in the search for prime factors, which is used in modern methods of data encryption.
