Any gaseous material along our line of sight to distant QUASARS or, more generally, ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI (AGNs) will absorb light according to the amounts and range of ions present. Strong absorption lines are common in rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) spectra of AGNs due to a variety of resonant transitions, for example the Lyman series lines of neutral hydrogen (H I, most notably Lyα λ1216;...
