The existence of a standing density wave in logarithmic space explains, for the first time in the history of physics, the origin of gravitation. Standing Waves as Carrier Waves for Information Transmission mystery. The distribution of numbers is indeed very irregular, but only on the linear number line. On the logarithmic number line, large gaps of prime numbers recur in regular intervals. Gauss (1795) had already noticed this. Thus, the set pi(n) of prime numbers up to the number n can be approximated by the simple formula, pi(n) =n / Inn. The reason for this phenomenon is the existence of a standing density wave on the logarithmic number line, the node points of this density wave acting as number attrac- tors. This is where prime numbers will "accumulate" and form composite numbers, i.e., non-primes, such as the seven non- primes from 401 to 409. Hence a "prime number gap" will occur in this place.
