Abstract
We provide a formula for the logarithmic density of the set of positive real numbers on which two prime counting functions and are simultaneously larger than their asymptotic main terms, as well as a method for calculating the numerical values of such densities with rigorously bounded errors. We apply these formulas to the pairwise races in the case , determining which pairs of residues and are more or less correlated in this way. The outcomes when provide a deeper mathematical illumination of the "mirror image" and "cyclic ordering" phenomena observed by Bays and Hudson.
