Abstract
In a recent experiment Zhu and Lin [Phys. Rev. A 53, 1767 (1996)] repo rted gain linewidths, in a coherently pumped atomic system, which were much less than the Doppler width. We show that this observation is ea sily explained in terms of our work [Phys. Rev. A 53, 2842 (1996)], wh ich is generalized to correspond to the experimental situation by incl usion of incoherent pumping, and pump and probe laser linewidths.
