The density conjecture for G-irregular primes

Let PG{\mathcal P}_G be the set of G-irregular primes, and write PG(x){\mathcal P}_G(x) for the number of its elements not exceeding xx. Let AA be the Artin constant,

A=p prime(11p(p1)),A=\prod_{p\ \mathrm{prime}}\left(1-\frac{1}{p(p-1)}\right),

and let π(x)\pi(x) denote the prime-counting function. The G-irregular-prime density conjecture. Asymptotically,

PG(x)(13A2e)π(x)0.6597765π(x).{\mathcal P}_G(x)\sim \left(1-\frac{3A}{2\sqrt e}\right)\pi(x)\approx 0.6597765\,\pi(x).

This is obtained from Siegel's heuristic together with the distribution of the relevant multiplicative orders; the source gives no resolution.
