The factors of 11,206+.c213 are p52 and p162
 

Another number has been factored and here are the results:

[QUOTE]NFSNET clocked up another success yesterday, when this appeared:

Original number had 213 digits:
[i]275761296288173942428817572372378549052834225323290099221816534166117857

Probable prime factor 1 has 52 digits:
[i]1820248831453728903079155734889112351429153639197869[/i]

Probable prime factor 2 has 162 digits:

The 213-digit number is the cofactor of 11^206+1. No primitive factors were known for this number, which was one reason for choosing it. The other reason was that there appeared to be a chance to take the record for the largest penultimate factor. We missed that one by a very large margin!

It can't really be counted as an ECM-miss, though, because it would have been more expensive (on average) to find the p52 by ECM than it actually was to use SNFS.

More details about the factorization will appear shortly. In the meantime, thanks to all the NFSNET contributors for finishing another factorization. We have now very nearly caught up with the backlog caused by M811. The remaining number, 10,223+, should be finished within the week, all being well.
