Mg ii Absorption at 2 <

Mg ii Absorption at 2 <

We present statistics from a survey of intervening Mg ii absorption toward 100 quasars with emission redshifts between z = 3.55 and z = 7.09. Using infrared spectra from Magellan/FIRE, we detect 280 cosmological Mg ii absorbers, and confirm that the comoving line density of Wr> 0.3 Å Mg ii absor...
