The union of the straight and—of the over a point of reflection—reflected union of the series of the arithmetic progression of primes results the double density of occupation of integer positions by multiples of the primes. The remaining free positions represent diads of equidistant primes to the point of reflection: in case the point of reflection is an even number, they satisfy Goldbach’s conjecture. Further, it allows to prove, that the number of twin primes is unlimited. The number of all greater gaps as two between primes has well defined lower limit functions as well: it is evaluated with the local density of diads, multiplied with the total of the density of no-primes of all positions over the distance between the components of the diads (the size of the gaps). The infinity of these lower limit functions proves the infinity of the number of gaps of any size between primes. The connection of the infinite number of diads to the infinity of the number of gaps of any size is the aim of the paper.
