Numerical calculations of the MSC based on broad-line cooling (5s2)1S0–(5s5p)1P1 (461 nm). The calculations are in the horizontal direction at an initial atomic temperature of 3 mK and an interaction time t of 0.5 ms. (a) Final velocity versus initial velocity at detuning frequencies of 50 MHz (black solid), 60 MHz (red dot), and 70 MHz (blue dash). (b) The corresponding spatial distribution.
