摘要：
The ultraviolet Lyman and Werner absorption lines of H-2 have been searched for in a number of high redshift quasar spectra, and detected unambiguously in at least 3 systems at redshifts zsimilar to2. The lack of detectable H-2 in most absorbers results from the strong selection in quasar studies against lines-of-sight with significant dust extinction. At high redshift, the ultraviolet radiation field is inferred to be higher than that observed in the local solar neighborhood, suggesting that vigorous star-formation is underway in these galaxies.
