Evidence for quasar outflows can be detected via blueshifted broad absorption lines (BALs) in rest-frame ultraviolet spectra of quasars. We have identified 18 narrow absorption line (NAL) systems in the BAL system of SDSS J010612.22+001920.1, indicating that this BAL outflow has achieved a high degree of clumpiness. Moreover, these NAL systems are highly structured in velocity space and separated from each other by the doublet spacings of multiple ionic species, including a sequence of 10 C IV doublets that form arithmetic progression with a common difference of ≃498 kms^–1. Cases like J010612.22+001920.1 offer strong evidence for the dynamical process of radiative acceleration in quasar outflow, and open up a new way for the research of quasar outflow under the framework of the NAL complex.
