Q. Find a prime whose square or cube contains 3 successive concatenated integers (no matter the order)


From 5-11 Oct 2024 contributions came from Emmanuel Vantieghem

***

There are no primes whose square is a concatenation of three consecutive numbers
since any such concatenation is divisible by three.
Nevertheless, it can be interesting to search for squares that are such concatenations.
They must be very rare.  I only know of :
   1089 = 33^2
   576 = 24^2
   324 = 18^2.
Other examples must have at least  30 digits.
