We investigate the ray dynamics in an optical cavity when a ray splitting
mechanism is present. The cavity is a conventional two-mirror stable resonator
and the ray splitting is achieved by inserting an optical beam splitter
perpendicular to the cavity axis. Using Hamiltonian optics, we show that such a
simple device presents a surprisingly rich chaotic ray dynamics.
