Description

We report on 293 quasars with strong NIV] {lambda}1486 or NIII] {lambda}1750 emission lines (rest-frame equivalent width >3{AA}) at 1.7<z<4.0 selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Fifth Data Release (Cat. VII/252). These nitrogen-rich (N-rich) objects comprise ~1.1% of the SDSS quasars. The comparison between the N-rich quasars and other quasars shows that the two quasar subsets share many common properties. We also confirm previous results that N-rich quasars have much stronger Ly{alpha} and NV {lambda}1240 emission lines. Strong nitrogen emission in all ionization states indicates high overall nitrogen abundances in these objects. We find evidence that the nitrogen abundance is closely related to quasar radio properties.
