SPATIO-TEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF THE CROSS SECTION PROFILE OF THE OPTICAL FIELD IN THE LASER WITH FREQUENCY DETUNING
The spatio-temporal dynamics of the cross section profile of the optical field in the laser with fre-quency detuning was numerically simulated on the basis of the Maxwell-Bloch equations. It is shown that at certain values of laser parameters autowaves propagating across the aperture are ob-served. In this laser system, it is shown the transition to spatio-temporal chaos via the cascade of tori doubling bifurcations.
