Abstract
The dynamics of stimulated Brillouin scattering in a finite-length, ho mogeneous medium with the effects of temporal resonance detuning but n o external feedback is examined numerically. The inclusion of resonanc e detuning leads to nonstationary behavior of the wave amplitudes incl uding periodicity, quasiperiodicity, and chaos. The results may have a pplications to experiments with optical fibers and laser plasmas.
