I reasoned that there might also be 2^n*F(n)+1 type primes
as a result of the gaps. It appears that there are!
(* prime gaps as a product function to get primes*)
w[n_]=Prime[n+1]-Prime[n]
p[n_]=1+Product[w[m],{m,2,n}]
digits=60
a=Delete[Union[Table[If[PrimeQ[p[n]]==True,p[n],0],{n,1,digits}]],1]
{2,3,5,17,257,12289,14155777,169869313,4076863489,32318253138475745281,
