Arm power via carrier reflection
Previously I measured the arm power via the power recycling gain and CARM pole. 
Today, using the modulation depth up-down test from November 2022 (alog 66015),
I estimate the arm powers to be 317 kW for 47.1 W incident on PRM.

This is right in between the arm power via PRG (337.7 kW) and arm power via CARM pole (301.0 kW).
The inferred round-trip arm losses from REFL are 64 ppm.
The plot shows the arm power estimates for all three methods.

Details

The total IFO carrier reflection is 7.1% From the mod depth up-down test results, I found that carrier makes up 90% of the total reflected light and 97% of the input light. From our HAM1 excursion power budget, I calculated that the total input power to LSC REFL A and B PDs efficiency is 0.00168. This comes from the following multiplied together: 1) measured old HAM1 REFL to mirror M5 efficiency = M5 refl / REFL beam = 0.0168 (alog 63519) 2) measured new M2 reflectivity = 0.41 (used to be HR) (alog 63625) 3) two 50:50 beamsplitters (M6 and M18) between mirror M5 and LSC refl PDs 4) IFI throughput = 0.977 5) IM4 reflectivity = 0.997573 So given this input to LSC REFL PD efficiency, we can calculate the IFO reflectivity for carrier like: IFO refl = LSC REFL {A/B} * carrier_in_refl / (input_power * carrier_in_input * input_to_lsc_refl_pd_efficiency) At the time of the the mod depth up down measurement, input_power = 47.15 W REFL_A = 6.12 mW REFL_B = 6.05 mW carrier_in_refl = 0.9 carrier_in_input = 0.972 input_to_lsc_refl_pd_efficiency = 0.00168 yields on average 7.1% between the two PDs. Differences between REFL A and B likely from small AOI differences causing mirror M18 to not be exactly 50:50, or calibration error.
