A Classification Scheme for Quasar Absorption Lines

We present a method to classify intergalactic absorption lines and apply it to 10,772 low-redshift systems. The classification gives the number of components (reflecting the kinematics) in four different ionization phases, using detections and nondetections of H i , high (O vi , N v , O v , Ne v , N...
