PRECIOUS METALS IN SDSS QUASAR SPECTRA. II. TRACKING THE EVOLUTION OF STRONG, 0.4 < z < 2.3 Mg II ABSORBERS WITH THOUSANDS OF SYSTEMS

We have performed an analysis of over 34,000 Mg II doublets at 0.36 < z < 2.29 in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 quasar spectra; the catalog, advanced data products, and tools for analysis are publicly available. The catalog was divided into 14 small redshift bins with roughly...
