We have developed a theory to solve for the lowest-order mode of hollow dielectric laser resonators with external mirrors. The results agree well with previously reported experimental results. In general, the optimum position (or positions) for a mirror of fixed curvature can be calculated, but as yet no simple rule has been found for predicting these positions.
