ADC_Keywords: QSOs ; Redshifts ; Spectroscopy
Keywords: cosmology: observations - quasars: absorption lines
Description:
The line tables, tablea1.dat, tablea2.dat and tablea3.dat, list the
fitted line parameters from Voigt-profile fitting of the Lyman-alpha
forest clouds: redshift, z, the Doppler parameter, b, and its density,
N. The profile fitting was done with the program VPFIT. The three
QSOs, HE0515-4414, J2233-606 and HE2217-2818 were taken with VLT/UVES
with a resolution of 45,000 and S/N of 30-50 in the forest regions.
