Figure 9: “Micro-Images”: The top left panel shows an assumed “unlensed” source profile of a quasar. The other three panels illustrate the micro-image configuration as it would be produced by stellar objects in the foreground. The surface mass density of the lenses is 20% (top right), 50% (bottom left) and 80% (bottom right) of the critical density (cf. Equation (16View Equation)).
