Metal abundances at z<1.5: new measurements in sub-Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers
C. Peroux, J. D. Meiring, V. P. Kulkarni +4
Damped Lyman-alpha systems (DLAs) and sub-DLAs seen toward background quasars provide the most detailed probes of elemental abundances. Somewhat paradoxically these measurements ar…

Narrow associated QSO absorbers: clustering, outflows and the line-of-sight proximity effect
Vivienne Wild, Guinevere Kauffmann, Simon White +8
Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 3 (SDSS DR3) we investigate how narrow (<700km/s) CIV and MgII quasar absorption line systems are distributed around quasa…

Average Properties of a Large Sample of z_abs ~ z_em associated Mg II Absorption Line Systems
D. Vanden Berk, P. Khare, D. G. York +16
We have studied a sample of 415 associated (z_ab z_em; relative velocity with respect to QSO <3000km/s) Mg II absorption systems with 1.0<=z_ab<=1.86, in the spectra of SDSS DR3 QS…
