Notes. Column (2): true values of the population parameters. For the parameters relative to the dark matter component, these are defined by fitting the model directly to the distribution of MDM, 5 and γDM. Column (3): priors on the parameters. Columns (4)–(6): median, 16th, and 84th percentile of the marginal posterior probability distribution of each parameter obtained using the sample of 100 time-delay lenses on its own, in combination with a prior on the lens structural parameters from the analysis of Paper I, and in combination with a prior on H0 with 1% precision.
