Abstract The influence of laser linewidth $\varGamma$1 on laser cooling of atoms was investigated theoretically by using a diffusing phase model. The final tempe rature which can be achieved by Doppler cooling or sub Doppler cooling in phase fluctuating laser field is presented. It was found that the natural linewidth $\varGamma$n of the transition used for cooling the atoms is an important quan tity in evaluating the influence of $\varGamma$1 under Doppler cooling mechanism, and the laser linewidth has little effect on the final temperature under sub-Doppler cooling mechanism because the laser detuning is very large in this case.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
