The final catalogue contains 361 candidate lensing systems. The lens galaxies are luminous red galaxies (LRGs) at redshift 0.4 < z < 0.8, and the source galaxies are LAEs at redshift 2 < z < 3. The spectral resolution of eBOSS (similar to 2000) allows us to further identify the fine structures of Lyman-alpha (Ly alpha) emissions. Among our lensed LAE candidates, 281 systems present single-peaked line profiles while 80 systems show double-peaked features. Future spectroscopic/imaging follow-up observations of the catalogue may shed light on the origin of diverse Ly alpha line morphology, and provide promising labs for studying low-mass dark matter haloes/subhaloes.Astronomy & Astrophysicsgravitational lensing: strongtechniques: spectroscopicgalaxies: elliptical and lenticular, cddark mattermass-density profilesimilar-to 0.5acs surveydiscoveryradiationevolutionemissiontext::journal::journal article::research article
