The critical curves and caustics together with the image and source positions predicted by one of the best-fit models in EPL+γ+m3+m4+PAv+Qv (assuming σf = 2% and σp = 10 mas). The best model parameters are also marked out by the vertical lines in Figure 12. The observed image positions for B1422 are also given (circles).
