Thanks! That was sloppy of me not to check in the pdf before sending. I
attach the correct file generated by lualatex for others. Indeed, the
primes are "cut off" horizontally, but perhaps that is a choice of design.

The question regarding spaces in the subscript remains.

Also, the space between the two x in the subscript looks a bit large 
to me. Is that easily tuned?


ConTeXt uses the OpenType version of the Latin Modern math font
while your LaTeX file uses the older Type1 version of the font
which uses multiple files for the different sizes. You can see this
when look into the document information which can be done
with your PDF viewer (or a command line tool like pdffonts).

Oh, I had not. It looks better with collapsing=1, indeed. A few neq
questions comes to me:

Does ConTeXt not use the same prime character as in TeX/LaTeX? Or has
something changed in latin modern? See the attached pdf files
(derivatives.pdf from ConTeXt and primetime-crop.pdf from lualatex). The
prime character looks more slanted in ConTeXt. It also almost looks like it
is cut horizontally at the bottom of the character. Also, the space between
the two x in the subscript looks a bit large to me. Is that easily tuned?

/Mikael

The ConTeXt file:
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1bp]
\setupmathematics[collapsing=1]
$f_{xx}''$
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

The LaTeX file:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
$f_{xx}''$

And what is the way if one also want indices:

$f''_{xx}$ or $f_{xx}''$ or ... ?

I want the indices under the primes


did you try with

\setupmathematics
  [collapsing=1]

both work but (i'm no mathematician) i'd opt for

$f_{xx}''$

as it says take the second something from f_{whatever} unless of course 
the index applies the second something


But i bet that Aditya can give the real answer.

well, there is quite some magic that handles all so with

   [collapsing=1] % or higher

it should work ok with '

of course one can also use the unicode characters
