We show the connection between the treatment of the effects of Gaussian-beam averaging on laser instability in some recent papers by Stuut Sargent [ J. Opt. Soc. Am. B1, 95 ( 1984)] and ourselves [ Z. Phys. B50, 171 ( 1983);Opt. Commun.46, 57 ( 1983)] and review the results obtained for laser instabilities with a Gaussian transverse intensity profile.
