The Heath-Brown–Moroz constant C, named for Roger Heath-Brown and Boris Moroz, is defined as

C = p ( 1 1 p ) 7 ( 1 + 7 p + 1 p 2 ) = 0.001317641...

where p runs over the primes.

This constant is part of an asymptotic estimate for the distribution of rational points of bounded height on the cubic surface X03=X1X2X3. Let H be a positive real number and N(H) the number of solutions to the equation X03=X1X2X3 with all the Xi non-negative integers less than or equal to H and their greatest common divisor equal to 1. Then

N ( H ) = C H ( log H ) 6 4 × 6 ! + O ( H ( log H ) 5 ) .
