Additional information
This nature paper lists individual author contributions. It states that Theuns and 6 other authors analysed the follow-up observations of ULASJ1120+0641 and interpreted the results. This analysis is crucial, since it demonstrated that the IGM near this high-z QSO is significantly neutral, since we detect the suggestion of an IGM damping wing (a first). Without this interpretation, the Nature paper would simply have announced the current redshift record holder. The paper also states that Theuns had input in the text.
