$\begin{figure} \par\includegraphics[height=13.3cm,width=15.9cm,clip]{1655fig3.ps}\end{figure}$ Figure 3: Hydrogen and metal absorption lines associated with the $z_{\rm abs}~$ = 1.7817 system toward HE 0141-3932 (normalized intensities are shown by dots with 1 $\sigma$ error bars). The zero radial velocity is fixed at z = 1.7817. Smooth curves are the synthetic spectra convolved with the corresponding point-spread spectrograph function and computed with the physical parameters listed in Table 3, Col. 2. Bold horizontal lines mark pixels included in the optimization procedure. The synthetic profiles of unmarked absorption features were calculated in a second round using the velocity v(x) and gas density $n_{\rm H}(x)$ distributions already obtained in the optimization procedure.

The spectra are normalized so that $J_\nu (h\nu =$ 1 Ryd) = 1. Factors f_i are defined in the Appendix.

The zero radial velocity is fixed at z = 1.71027. The corresponding physical parameters are listed in Table 3, Cols. 3, 4. The arrow in the Ly $\alpha$ panel indicates pixels with non-zero intensities.
