Abstract
A method is proposed for the description of ring cavities with a nonpl anar axial contour. This method makes it possible to find the stabilit y regions and the characteristics of a Gaussian mode with complex asti gmatism, which is formed in such cavities. Numerical calculations are reported of the field characteristics and stability regions of a four- mirror ring cavity with a nonplanar axial contour.
