The steady-state statistical properties of the single-mode laser with multiplicative white-noise loss fluctuations are investigated. Analytic expressions for the intensity distribution and its moments are derived and it is shown that the multiplicative noise significantly modifies the laser characteristics. These predictions are then tested by photoelectric measurements of a He:Ne laser with fluctuating loss. Good agreement between theory and experiment is obtained.
