Low-ionization Metal Absorption at $0.7 \lesssim z \lesssim 2$ Confronting Cosmological Simulations with Observations
IllustrisTNG with a uniform UVB reproduces observed MgI, MgII and FeII column-density PDFs and low-EW MgII incidence but underestimates the number of strong MgII systems and fails to capture their rise toward z~2.
