N2 - Here we present a catalog of strong (rest equivalent width
Wr> intervening Mg II absorbers in the SDSS Data Release 7
quasar catalog (2010AJ....139.2360S, Cat. VII/260). The intervening
absorbers were found by a semi-automatic algorithm written in IDL - for
details of the algorithm see section 2 of our paper. A subset of the
absorbers have been visually inspected - see the MAN_OK flag in the
catalog.
The number of sightlines searched, tabulated by absorber redshift, i.e.
g(z), is available as an ASCII table (for S/N>8 and S/N>15). All
analysis in our paper is based on the SNR>8 coverage, and considers
only sight-lines towards non-BAL quasars.
Any questions regarding the catalog should be sent to Daniel Lawther
