Fig. 7.
Distribution showing the radial separation R∥ [pMpc] and projected separation R⊥ [pMpc] of the 37 pairs at z ∼ 1. The radial separation R∥ is converted from the velocity offset ΔV [km s−1] assuming z = 1, which is also shown for reference. The color shows the peak significance within two arcminutes, |$\sigma _\mathrm{peak,2^{\prime }}$|, in red (|$4\le \sigma _\mathrm{peak,2^{\prime }}$|), green (|$2\le \sigma _\mathrm{peak,2^{\prime }}<4$|) and blue (|$\sigma _\mathrm{peak,2^{\prime }}<2$|). The filled symbols show the BOSS quasar pairs. The open symbols show the pairs from Hennawi et al. (2006). (Color online)
