Abstract
We demonstrate and discuss the formation of an intriguing interference fringe pattern that is visible in stable resonators at resonator lengths corresponding to a higher-order frequency-degeneracy. The optical trajectories that form these fringes are described for arbitrary degeneracy; the fringes can be used to visualize and quantify imaging aberrations of the cavity relative to a cavity consisting of ideal mirrors.
