Nitrogen-Loud Quasars from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. II. Broad-Line Region Metallicity and Relative Nitrogen Enrichment

Whether the unusually strong nitrogen emission in nitrogen-loud (N-loud) quasars reflects high overall metallicity, enhanced nitrogen abundance relative to other elements, or both has long been debated. We analyze the broad-line region (BLR) abundances of 121 N-loud quasars at $2.13 \leq z \leq 3.90$ selected from the...

Nitrogen-Loud Quasars from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. I. Sample Selection and Basic Properties

We present the largest sample to date of nitrogen-loud (N-loud) quasars with strong broad N IV] $\lambda1486$ and/or N III] $\lambda1750$ emission lines over the redshift range $1.6<z<4.3$, selected from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 1. The final sample contains 1,993 N-loud quasars, corr...
