Wpolly: you are slightly off the mark. There is at least one and maybe more 13 digit prime(s) less than 1,000,000,000,063.
hint: you wont have to go far to find it!

Your number 196883: =196,560 + 323
196,560 is the number of spheres touching any one sphere in a 24-dimensional Leech lattice
323 = 17*19
However let's have your answer wpolly so the number is up again

196883.

30042907 Ive put the number up again. Lets hear from you Kees.

smallest 13 digit prime is 1,000,000,000,039.

For 30042907 as a hint, think about corollaries to fermats last theorem.

Thumbs up Special whole numbers

You are right on 1,000,000,000,039.It is indeed a prime. But is there one further up below 1,000,000,000,063 ?

Well, 1,000,000,000,061 is prime two, so we have twins

And if we look a little bit further we find another one, giving
the primes

1,000,000,000,061
1,000,000,000,091
1,000,000,000,121

1+2^3 = 3^2
2^5+7^2 = 3^4
7^3+13^2 = 2^9
2^7+17^3 = 71^2
3^5+11^4 = 122^2
17^7+76271^3 = 21063928^2
1414^3+2213459^2 = 65^7
9262^3+15312283^2 = 113^7
43^8+96222^3 = 30042907^2
33^8+1549034^2 = 15613^3

As for the number, I'll leave wpollly's one.

EDIT: But, as we expect her answer (which probably is the one Kees gave):

278914005382139703576000

The reason why I gave 1........63 is because these are easily remembered twin primes in 13 digit primes and 13 itself is a prime.
Well we now have fetofs 278914005382139703576000

fetofs was spot on for my number.
His number factors as

(2^6)*(3^5)*(5^3)*(7^2)*11*13*17*19*23*29*31*37*41*43*47

which uses al the prime numbers under 50. But this probably is not the answer
due to the extra factors of 2, 3, 5 and 7.
But then again, it is still early morning for me

So what of it?! To me it is perfectly acceptable Kees. Its a remarkable piece of factorisation. What URL do you use ?

Not entirely sure that I understood your question properly, but for factorisation
PARI does quite a nice job upto rather large numbers. But I really think that fetops has something else in mind, therefore I have not posted another number yet.
