Notes. The mass centroids of G1 and G2 are fixed to the light centroids of G1 and G2 from the best-fit light model, while the position angle of the mass has a Gaussian prior centered on the best-fit light model. The prior on the PL slope follows the SLACS lens sample (Auger et al. 2010; Shajib et al. 2021).
