Line density of DLA systems from the SDSS shown as a function of redshift. HERE is a PDF of the figure.

Frequency distribution of N_HI values for the DLA from the DR5. Overplotted on the data are three fits: a single power-law, a Gamma function, and a double power law. Note that the break in f(N) at log N_HI ~ 21.6 remains statistically significant. HERE is a PDF of the figure.

Omega_DLA as measured from the SDSS-DR5 DLA. HERE is a PDF of the figure.
