Abstract
Spontaneous pulsation phenomena in xenon lasers are now well known, and related effects have been observed with other laser types. Most theoretical analyses of such pulsations are formulated for unidirectional ring lasers, whereas most experiments involve standing-wave resonator geometries. Described here are rigorous semiclassical models governing the spontaneous pulsation instability in standing-wave laser oscillators. Numerical solutions of the model yield close agreement with time-domain and frequency-domain experimental results. Several factors affect the accuracy of the numerical solutions, and in some cases an apparently more accurate numerical representation can be farther away from the exact solution.
