11. Stabilization is usually implemented using electronic feedback, but all-optical stabilization has also been achieved. From this perspective our proposal for the 3MC offers an interesting way to control instabilities purely optically.
12. We clarify that in passive cooling experiments-as opposed to cold damping experiments-the low-frequency part of the "error" signal is fed back to lock the cavity while the high frequency part is used to acquire the noise spectrum of the mirror. The force due to electronic feedback thus degrades quickly outside the low-frequency bandwidth ωb which is much smaller than the effective response frequency of the mirror ωeff. At ωeff the radiation effects thus dominate the feedback force, leading to the mentioned asymmetric optical potential.

24. We also note that the experimental arrangement corresponding to this model is that of the 3MC irradiated from both sides, unlike Fig. 1. In this case both end mirrors have a small transmissivity Tend (Table 1).
