A305260
A linear mapping a(n) = x + y*n of pairs of nonnegative integers (x,y), where the pairs are enumerated first by radial coordinate r and in case of ties, by polar angle 0 <= phi <= Pi/2 in a polar coordinate system.

COMMENTS
Secondary sorting by polar angle is equivalent to secondary sorting by y.
The sequence is an alternative solution to the riddle described in the comments of A304584.
