| Summary:

Spatiotemporal mode-locking in a laser with anomalous dispersion is
investigated. Mode-locked states with varying modal content can be observed,
but we find it difficult to observe highly multimode states. We describe the
properties of these mode-locked states and compare them to the results of
numerical simulations. Prospects for the generation of highly-multimode states
and lasers based on multimode soliton formation are discussed.
