Kaleidoscope lasers - Complexity in simple optical systems

Christian, JM; McDonald, GS; Huang, JG

Abstract

We present the first detailed account of modelling kaleidoscope laser modes where the equivalent Fresnel number Neq and magnification M may assume arbitrary values. The convergence toward circularity is also investigated through extensive numerical computations.
