How do the prime ideals of $\mathbb{Z}_{k}$ look like?

I started studying about localization of rings and i am stuck at a question about $Spec(R_{S})$ where $R$ is a commutative ring and $S$ a multiplicatively closed set, so $R_{S}$ is also known as localization.

So, have to specify how the prime ideals of a certain $R_{S}$ look like. Given is the ring $R = \mathbb{Z}$, some $k\in \mathbb{Z}$, the localization is $\mathbb{Z}_{k}$. Our multiplicatively closed set is $S=\left \{ 1, k, k^{2}, \dots \right \}$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{k} = \left \{ \frac{r}{k^{n}} : r\in \mathbb{Z}, n\in \mathbb{N} \right \}$.

How to find the prime ideals of $\mathbb{Z}_{k}$? Can anybody help me, please? Thank you very much!


The prime ideals of $\mathbf Z_k$ correspond bijectively to the primes $p$ such that $k\not\in p\mathbf Z$ i.e. to the primes $p$ that do not divide $k$.
