For the corresponding term x1(n) see A254938(n).
See A254938 also for the Nagell reference.
The least positive y solutions (that is those of the first class) for the primes +1 and -1 (mod 8) together (including prime 2) are given in A255246.

FORMULA
|
A254938(n)^2 - 2*(2*a(n))^2 = -A007522(n) gives the smallest positive (proper) solution of this (generalized) Pell equation.

|
EXAMPLE
|
n = 3: 1^2 - 2*(2*2)^2 = 1 - 32 = -31 = -A007522(3).
