Identifying AGNs from X-ray detections$-$II: Metallicity calibrations for the $\rm N_2O_2$ and $\rm N_2S_2$ diagnostics

Emission-line ratios from ions with nearly identical ionization potentials offer a robust solution to the degeneracies inherent to traditional active galactic nuclei (AGNs) metallicity diagnostics.

Emission-line ratios from ions with nearly identical ionization potentials offer a robust solution to the degeneracies inherent to traditional active galactic nuclei (AGNs) metallicity diagnostics. We introduce new semi-empirical metallicity calibrations for the $\rm N_2O_2$ and…
