Side view of the model and the MSC numerical calculations in the vertical direction. The MSC spatial distribution is shown for an initial atomic temperature of 5 μK. The spatial distributions are shown (a) at detuning frequencies of 120 kHz (black solid), 140 kHz (red dot), and 160 kHz (blue dash), for t = 20 ms and s = 100; (b) at saturation factors of s = 30 (black solid), s = 100 (red dot), and s = 300 (blue dash), for t = 20 ms and δ = 120 kHz; and (c) at interaction time of t = 15 ms (black solid), t = 20 ms (red dot), t = 25 ms (blue dash), for s = 100 and δ = 120 kHz. (d) Side view of the expected MSC model in the vertical direction at s = 100. In the figure, the solid balls are atomic envelopes, and the two black balls represent the atomic envelope which is closer to the observation window.
