The asymptotic probability of being a 2-Sophie Germain prime

Let pp range over the prime numbers, and call pp a 2-Sophie Germain prime (or 22-SGP) when it satisfies the paper's definition of an aa-Sophie Germain prime with a=2a=2. The probability refers to the limiting proportion of such primes among primes as pp tends to infinity.

The 2-Sophie Germain prime probability conjecture. The probability that a given prime pp is 22-SGP converges to 0.760.76 as pp\to\infty.

The conjecture is motivated by numerical tables and computed estimates showing convergence toward 0.760.76; no proof or resolution is supplied in the source.
