Scientific paper

We present Keck HIRES and KPNO 4m/RC Spec spectra of the close QSO triplet 1623+27 (z~ 2.5, separations s= 127-177 arcsec) and close QSO pair 1517+239, and resulting new insights into the clustering, shape and size of both C IV and Ly alpha absorption line objects. The cross-correlation of C IV absorbers between sightlines is much weaker than earlier measurements on corresponding scales along single sightlines of the two-point correlation function xi_a . Internal velocity splittings and/or large deviations from the Hubble flow predominate in establishing xi_a of C IV absorbers, and that spatial clustering alone cannot explain the strong xi_a for single-sightline velocity splittings 200 km s(-1)
