Gas-Phase Metallicity and Nitrogen Abundances in Low-Mass Galaxies Down to $M_\star\simeq10^{5.7}\,M_\odot$ at $z\simeq4.5$--$10.1$ from JWST Lensing Cluster Surveys
We analyze 405 deep JWST/NIRSpec spectra of star-forming galaxies at $z=4.5$--$10.1$ from DREAMS and other lensing-cluster surveys to study chemical enrichment in intrinsically faint, low-mass galaxies. The sample covers $M_{\rm UV}\simeq-12$ to $-22$ and reaches $M_\star\simeq10^{5.7}\,M_\odot$, with 50\% of the sources at $M_{\rm UV}>-17.5$ magnified by $\mu>3$. From individual spectra and mass-binned stacks, we derive the gas-phase metallicity together with nitrogen and carbon abundances using the rest-frame UV and optical lines. \Add{We derive new empirical strong-line metallicity calibrations using direct-method measurements from stellar-mass-binned stacks, reaching a representative stellar mass of $M_\star\simeq10^{6.6}\,M_\odot$. Applying these calibrations, we trace the $z\sim6$ mass--metallicity relation down to $M_\star\simeq10^{6.6}\,M_\odot$, where it reaches $12+\log({\rm O/H})\simeq7.2$, with a low-mass slope slightly steeper than the local relation and in broad agreement with hydrodynamical simulations.} In the $M_\star\simeq10^{7.7}\,M_\odot$ stack, N/O from N\,{\sc iv}]\,$\lambda\lambda\,1483,1486$ exceeds that from [N\,{\sc ii}]\,$\lambda6583$ by $\simeq1.4$ dex. The UV--optical difference could indicate a localized, highly ionized N-rich component whose high N/O and subsolar C/O resemble nitrogen-rich globular-cluster populations with $M_\star\lesssim10^6\,M_\odot$. \Add{The combination of these abundance patterns and a He\,{\sc ii}\,\W4686/H$\beta$ ratio of $\simeq0.03$, well above BPASS predictions, suggests that WR stars may contribute both prompt CNO-cycle enrichment and hard ionizing radiation, with the inferred WR population potentially supplying enough nitrogen to account for the excess on globular-cluster scales.
