Ng's conjecture for the second ratio moment at the zeros of the zeta function

Let the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function be written as ρ=12+iγ\rho=\tfrac12+i\gamma. Assume the Riemann Hypothesis and that these zeros are simple. Ng's conjecture. As T→∞T\to\infty,

∑0<γ≤T∣ζ(2ρ)ζ′(ρ)∣2∼T2π.\sum_{0<\gamma\le T}\left|\frac{\zeta(2\rho)}{\zeta'(\rho)}\right|^2\sim\frac{T}{2\pi}.

This companion conjecture is attributed to Ng and remains open; the paper proves a lower bound of half the expected main term.
