 On the Distribution of Irreducible Trinomials We obtain new results about the number of trinomials $t^n + at + b$ with integer coefficients in a box $(a,b) \in [C, C+A] \times [D, D+B]$ that are irreducible modulo a prime $p$. As a by-product we show that for any $p$ there are irreducible polynomials of height at most $p^{1/2+o(1)}$, improving on the previous estimate of $p^{2/3+o(1)}$ obtained by the author in 1989.

 The Discriminant of a Dihedral Quintic Field Defined by a Trinomial $X^5 + aX + b$ Let $X^5 + aX + b \in Z[X]$ have Galois group $D_5$. Let $\theta$ be a root of $X^5 + aX + b$. An explicit formula is given for the discriminant of $Q(\theta)$. Keywords:dihedral quintic field, trinomial, discriminantCategories:11R21, 11R29
