High-quality data of the Hubble Deep Field South (HDF-S) quasar
J2233-606 (
,
)
were obtained during the
commissioning of the UVES on the VLT 8.2 m Kueyen telescope
at Paranal (Chile) in October 1999.
The resolving power at which the spectra were recorded
in the spectral range
Å was
,
corresponding to velocity resolution of
km s-1.
The data reduction and the identification of metal absorption-line
systems in the J2233-606 spectrum
are reported in Cristiani & D'Odorico (2000).
In our study we also used the J2233-606 echelle spectrum
(
,
Å)
obtained with the HST/STIS (Savaglio 1998).
