http://www.mail-archive.com/mersenne@base.com/msg08100.html This not only completes the factorization of M997, which had been the second smallest Mersenne number without a known factor, at 57 digits it also breaks the record for the largest factor ever found by ECM! Congratulations, Bruce Dodson! |
