Abstract

The lasing frequencies of a ring laser with counterpropagating electromagnetic waves are calculated for the case when a part of the laser circuit is subjected to a constant electromagnetic field. It is demonstrated that, according to equations of the parametrized post-Maxwellian electrodynamics of vacuum, two waves with different planes of polarization and frequencies should propagate in each direction of the ring laser. The analysis has shown that, with the help of advanced ring lasers and external electromagnetic fields attainable in the laboratory, the post-Maxwellian parameters can be measured with a precision that would be sufficient to verify the most popular theoretical models of the nonlinear electrodynamics of vacuum.
