Fig. 2
Redshift path density for the two samples, with quasars shown in blue and GRB afterglows in black. The gap at z ~ 4 is caused by the atmospheric absorption bands between the J- and H bands, where no Mg ii absorbers can be recognised. XQ-100 includes 100 sightlines, hence g(z) saturates at this level.
