The septic app is now officially complete. The final tally of results are as follows: Inspected 38136713961009 polynomials. # Polys passing field disc test = 36163948. # Polys after refinement = 1009140. Elapsed Time (summed over all clients) = 3.31043e+07 hours The key piece of information here is that there are 1,009,140 septic fields with discriminant less than 200E6. We have these fields available as a text file to anyone who might be interested. They will also be added to the numberfields database: [Link] https://hobbes.la.asu.edu/NFDB/ We plan on submitting these results (with a more detailed discussion) in the form of a journal article. I will report back here with details of that as I get more information.

I will be on vacation for 2 weeks, and my internet access will be spotty. So I apologize in advance for any delays in responding to the boards. I generated enough work to last for the next two weeks, so hopefully I wont need to do any remote logins. Thanks all!

In the coming days we will be introducing a new number field application. This one will target degree 7 fields (called septics). The current best bound is 5E6, and this app will increase that to 200E6. This means it will find all degree 7 fields whose discriminant is bounded by 200E6. Here is some additional information: 1. This search is expected to run for only 5 to 6 months (but could take longer). 2. It will run side-by-side with the current decic app. 3. It will only support the 64bit Windows and 64 bit Linux platforms.
