Résumé
The objective of the proposed method is a better knowledge of the spatial energy distribution (SED) supplied by multimodal cavities. The principe of the method consists of observing the laser beam intensity at different locations of a section. After recording beam with a CCD camera, the information is treated in view to recompose the sources SED. The knowledge of the later and the fondamental equations allows us to calculate the propagation characteristics. The obtained results are compared with those coming from Badawi's method and a good agreement was found. So we thunk that the method is valid.
