Comment on ''Inverse Doppler shift and control field as coherence generators for the stability in superluminal light''

Abstract

In their study of inverse Doppler shift and superluminal light [Phys. Rev. A 91, 053807 (2015)], Ghafoor et al. consider a three-level atomic arrangement with transitions in the optical domain. In fact, the values they give to the parameters lead to a probe wavelength lying in the decimeter band. We point out that the Doppler shifts are then negligible and remark that the simulations performed by Ghafoor et al. do not evidence any superluminal effect.
