It is found experimentally that the application of a magnetic field to the active element of a monolithic ring Nd:YAG chip laser in nonstationary lasing regimes can result in nonidentical spectral parameters of counterpropagating radiation waves (spectral nonreciprocity) in quasi-periodic and chaotic lasing regimes. The value of the spectral nonreciprocity depends on the coupling coefficient of counterpropagating waves, the excess over the pump threshold, and the optical nonreciprocity of the ring cavity. The obtained results are in good agreement with the results of numerical simulation. (control of laser radiation parameters)
