Abstract: We present new estimates for the statistical properties of damped Lyman-$\alpha$ absorbers (DLAs). We compute the column density distribution function at $z>2$, the line density, $\mathrm{d}N/\mathrm{d}X$, and the neutral hydrogen density, $\Omega_\mathrm{DLA}$. Our estimates are… read more here.
