Primitive semiperfect number

In mathematics, a primitive semiperfect number (also called a primitive pseudoperfect number, irreducible semiperfect number or irreducible pseudoperfect number) is a natural number that has no semiperfect proper divisor.
The first few primitive semiperfect numbers are 6, 20, 28, 88, 104, 272, 304, 350, ... (sequence A006036 (http://www.research.att.com/cgi-bin/access.cgi/as/njas/sequences/eisA.cgi?Anum=A006036) in OEIS).
It has been shown that there exist infinitely many odd primitive semiperfect numbers, as well as infinitely many primitive semiperfect numbers that are not harmonic divisor numbers.
