Lyα exc. 46/354 ( 13 2 + 2 % $ 13^{+2}_{-2}\% $) 17/169 ( 9 2 + 3 % $ 9^{+3}_{-2}\% $) 6/103 ( 4 1 + 3 % $ 4^{+3}_{-1}\% $) 2/46 (4%) 2/17 (6%)
IGM abs. 93/354 ( 26 2 + 3 % $ 26^{+3}_{-2}\% $) 39/169 ( 17 3 + 3 % $ 17^{+3}_{-3}\% $) 26/103 ( 22 3 + 5 % $ 22^{+5}_{-3}\% $) 6/46 (7%) 7/17 (29%)

DLAs 179/318 ( 56 3 + 3 % $ 56^{+3}_{-3}\% $) 101/157 ( 64 4 + 4 % $ 64^{+4}_{-4}\% $) 64/96 ( 67 5 + 4 % $ 67^{+4}_{-5}\% $) 37/45 ( 82 7 + 4 % $ 82^{+4}_{-7}\% $) 8/17 ( 47 11 + 12 % $ 47^{+12}_{-11}\% $)

Notes. Errorbars denote the 1σ confidence interval (c = 0.683) on the computed fraction derived from the formalism by Cameron (2011). DLA fractions are computed by excluding the strong LAEs from the sample at each redshift bin.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
