TCS:
# The presumably dominant effect of a thermal lens in the ITMs is an increased
# mode mismatch into the SRC, and thus an increased effective loss of the SRC.
# The increase is estimated by calculating the round-trip loss S in the SRC as
# 1-S = |<Psi|exp(i*phi)|Psi>|^2, where
# |Psi> is the beam hitting the ITM and
# phi = P_coat*phi_coat + P_subs*phi_subs
# with phi_coat & phi_subs the specific lensing profiles
# and P_coat & P_subst the power absorbed in coating and substrate
#
# This expression can be expanded to 2nd order and is given by
# S= s_cc P_coat^2 + 2*s_cs*P_coat*P_subst + s_ss*P_subst^2
# s_cc, s_cs and s_ss were calculated analytically by Phil Willems (4/2007)
s_cc: 7.024 # Watt^-2
s_cs: 7.321 # Watt^-2
s_ss: 7.631 # Watt^-2
# The hardest part to model is how efficient the TCS system is in
# compensating this loss. Thus as a simple Ansatz we define the
# TCS efficiency TCSeff as the reduction in effective power that produces
# a phase distortion. E.g. TCSeff=0.99 means that the compensated distortion
# of 1 Watt absorbed is equivalent to the uncompensated distortion of 10mWatt.
# The above formula thus becomes:
# S= s_cc P_coat^2 + 2*s_cs*P_coat*P_subst + s_ss*P_subst^2 * (1-TCSeff)^2
#
# To avoid iterative calculation we define TCS.SCRloss = S as an input
# and calculate TCSeff as an output.
# TCS.SRCloss is incorporated as an additional loss in the SRC
