One of the four successive approximations up to 13^n for the 13-adic integer 6^(1/4). This is the 4 (mod 5) case (except for n = 0).

For n > 0, a(n) is the unique number k in [1, 5^n] and congruent to 4 mod 5 such that k^4 - 6 is divisible by 5^n.
For k not divisible by 5, k is a fourth power in 5-adic field if and only if k == 1 (mod 5). If k is a fourth power in 5-adic field, then k has exactly 4 fourth-power roots.
FORMULA
a(n) = A325485(n)*A048898(n) mod 5^n = A325486(n)*A048899(n) mod 5^n.
For n > 0, a(n) = 5^n - A325484(n).
a(n)^2 == A324023(n) (mod 5^n).
EXAMPLE
The unique number k in [1, 5^2] and congruent to 4 modulo 5 such that k^4 - 6 is divisible by 5^2 is k = 4, so a(2) = 4.
The unique number k in [1, 5^3] and congruent to 4 modulo 5 such that k^4 - 6 is divisible by 5^3 is also k = 4, so a(3) is also 4.
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = lift(-sqrtn(6+O(5^n), 4))
