Notes. The un-reported values and values without uncertainties are fixed parameters during the fit using the values from corresponding H I absorbers.

(a)

The C IV absorber #2 and #3 are poorly constrained (see Appendices C.3 and E.2 and Fig. E.4 for discussion and their probability distributions). We only report the fitted column density results as upper limit.
