Abstract: The concept of Mersenne primes is studied in real quadratic fields of class number 1. Computational results are given. The field $Q(sqrt2)$ is studied in detail with a focus on representing Mersenne primes in the form $x^2+7y^2$. It is also proved that $x$ is divisible by 8 and $yequivpm3pmod8$ generalizing the result of F Lemmermeyer, first proved in cite{LS} using Artin's Reciprocity law.
