ABSTRACT
We revisit the laser model with cavity loss modulation, from which evidence of chaos and generalized multistability was discovered in 1982. Multistability refers to the coexistence of two or more attractors in nonlinear dynamical systems. Despite its relative simplicity, the adopted model shows us how the multistability depends on the dissipation of the system. The model is then tested under the action of a secondary sinusoidal perturbation, which can remove bistability when a suitable relative phase is chosen. The surviving attractor is the one with less dissipation. This control strategy is particularly useful when one of the competing attractors is a chaotic attractor.
