Abstract: Let L(s,f) be an L-function associated to a primitive (holomorphic or Maass) cusp form f on GL(2) over mathbbQ. Combining mean-value estimates of Montgomery and Vaughan with a method of Ramachandra, we prove a formula for the mixed second moments of derivatives of L(1/2+it,f) and, via a method of Hall, use it to show that there are infinitely many gaps between consecutive zeros of L(s,f) along the critical line that are at least sqrt3=1.732... times the average spacing. Using general pair correlation results due to Murty and Perelli in conjunction with a technique of Montgomery, we also prove the existence of small gaps between zeros of any primitive L-function of the Selberg class. In particular, when f is a primitive holomorphic cusp form on GL(2) over mathbbQ, we prove that there are infinitely many gaps between consecutive zeros of L(s,f) along the critical line that are at most <0.823 times the average spacing.
