Notes. The columns with suffix “_A” describe the known quasar, while those with suffix “_B” describe the nearby quasar candidate. The last entry “seplim” represents the separation corresponding to a transverse distance of 100 kpc at the known quasar redshift (see Section 2.2.1 for details).

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.
