Resumen:
When describing field propagation in a ring cavity, longitudinal fields are usually neglected. Although small, the longitudinal component is always present in finite width beams. An equation describing field propagation in Kerr media and inside a ring cavity filled with such medium is derived. Coupling among longitudinal and transverse fields but also other usually neglected terms are considered. Numerical integration results show that coupling with longitudinal field can orientate the resulting pattern along the polarization direction.
