Abstract Dynamics of a moving two-level atom with fine structure interacting with an electromagnetic field is studied. The fine structure increases the damping rate induced by the atomic momentum distribution. When the field is in a Fock state, the Rabi oscillation becomes very complicated; when the field is in a superposition state, the collapse-revival phenomenon disappears for the wider atomic wavepackets. In the presence of the fine structure, each atomic level splits into three sublevels when the field is in a Fock state and the atom has a definite momentum.

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.
