Scientific paper

We present a technique for systematically quantifying quasar environments by means of the absorption signatures of quasars. Using the substantial number of sample quasar spectra that can be found in the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) archives and literature measurements of the richness of quasar environments, we will determine whether the strength or the incidence of quasar-associated absorption in a quasar spectrum correlates with an excess of nearby galaxy neighbors.
