Take a look at :

Good afternoon,
When generating an RSA key, several components are described in the
output file. Per the RSA specification on wikipedia, I can identify
the following values:
prime1: p
prime2: q
modulus: N = p * q
publicExponent: e
privateExponent: d
What I'm not clear about is what function these values play:
exponent1: ??
exponent2: ??
coefficient: ??
Can someone explain?
Thanks,
Mike
