Von Mangoldt reformulation of prime-pair equidistribution

Let zz and qq be fixed, let Nq(a,b)\mathcal{N}_q(a,b) denote a coset lattice congruence class for prime pairs (pi,pi+z)(p_i,p_{i+z}), and let Ψz(x;Nq(a,b),q)\Psi_z(x;\mathcal{N}_q(a,b),q) be the corresponding weighted counting function. Write ϕ(q)=#{(a,b):(pi,pi+z)Nq(a,b)}\phi(q)=\#\{(a,b):(p_i,p_{i+z})\in\mathcal{N}_q(a,b)\}. Weighted equidistribution conjecture. For some constant D(z)>0\mathcal{D}(z)>0,

Ψz(x;Nq(a,b),q)xD(z)ϕ(q).\Psi_z(x;\mathcal{N}_q(a,b),q)\sim \frac{x\mathcal{D}(z)}{\phi(q)}.

This is presented as a reformulation of the preceding prime-pair equidistribution problem using the von Mangoldt function. The supplied text does not establish the asymptotic, so its resolution is not indicated.
