title: External-feedback effects in high-gain scattering media.
abstract: We report on experimental studies of external-feedback effects on high-gain scattering media. We explain experimental results for the pump energy required for laser action as a function of the separation between a mirror and the media by use of Monte Carlo simulations and integration of the laser equations.
