►Folding mirrors
We use 2inch mirrors (d2" x t3/8") mirrors for the PRC/SRC folding mirrors.
Their name has been changed such that the definition agrees with the AdvLIGO naming. (12/01/2009)

Zernike Polynomial Z20 = 1-2 rho2, where rho is the normalized radius (rho = r/r0). Define z20 as the coefficient for this term. ("Power" in Zygo data is defined as zygo = 2*z20)
Sphere z=(R2-r2)1/2 => R [1- (r/R)2/2] for a small r.
Comparing the second order terms, we obtain: zygo/ r0 = 1/(2 R) => R = -r02/2/z,,2,,0^
Use r,,0=40.64mm/2 and Lambda = 633nm => R=326.147/zygo where R is RoC

R for 532nm to be considered!
At the installation in 2010, G&H HR mirrors were used for the TT mirrors. This results very little transmission through those mirrorrs (<25ppm).
