contents The author gives nontrivial upper and lower bounds for the number of primes in the interval $[x - x^θ, x]$ for some $0.52 \leqslant θ\leqslant 0.525$, showing that the interval $[x - x^{0.52}, x]$ contains prime numbers for all sufficiently large $x$. This refines a result of Baker, Harman and Pintz (2001) and gives an affirmative answer to Harman and Pintz's argument. New arithmetic information, a delicate sieve decomposition, various techniques in Harman's sieve and accurate estimates for integrals are used to good effect.
