Notes. Ire is the intensity [e−/s] of the profile at the effective radius re [mas], ϵ is the ellipticity of the source calculated as (1 − b/a) where (a, b) are the semi-major and semi-minor axis of the source, PA is the position angle of the source (from north to east), and n the Sérsic index. Ic is the central intensity [e−/s] of the exponential profile of the central quasar. The scale length of the quasar exponential profile is fixed at rs = 39.4 mas.
