This is a list of the interesting objects found with 0.5 < z < 2 with magnitude 17 < g < 18, all epochs.
The search was done by REU students: Sean Collier, Sean Heston, and Jake Pighini and was checked by Nahum Arav.
The names of each object are linked to the PDF file of the SDSS spectra with the ions of each system identified. The blue system is considered the "main" system.
NOTE: Velocity is in units of 1000km/s. (e.g. 2.4 = 2400km/s) and flux is in units of 10e-17 ergs/s/cm2/A. If the rest wavelength of 1350 angstroms was not in the range, flux was identified at 1600 angstroms.
