Cooling of gases by laser radiation
Open accessAbstract
It is shown that a low-density gas can be cooled by illuminating it with intense, quasi-monochromatic light confined to the lower-frequency half of a resonance line's Doppler width. Translational kinetic energy can be transferred from the gas to the scattered light, until the atomic velocity is reduced by the ratio of the Doppler width to the natural line width.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
