While self studying analytic proof of Prime Number Theorem from Apostol Introduction to analytic number theory , I couldn't think about a deduction in theorem contour integral representation of $\psi_1(x) $ / ($x^2$) .
My only doubt in this theorem is how Apostol writes $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \Lambda(n) / n^c $ to be absolutely convergent if $c>1$.
Can someone please tell how this is true?
Notice that the Dirichlet series in question is equal to $-\zeta'(c)/\zeta(c)$, i.e. the negative of the logarithmic derivative of $\zeta(c)$. As $\zeta(s)$ converges absolutely for $\operatorname{Re}(s)>1$, the series does too.
