Experimental data are presented characterizing the noise sources in surface-channel CCDs fabricated by conventional single-level processing in P-type silicon. These data were obtained through noise spectrum measurements on the output of a continuously running CCD shift register. Quantitative comparisons are made with noise levels predicted by the results of spectral analyses also included in th...

Noise is essential for the existence of a liquid market, and if noise traders are not present in the market, the trade volume will drop severely and an important aspect of the market philosophy will be lost. However, these noise traders bring noise to the market, and the existence of noise in prices indicates a temporary deviation in prices from their fundamental values. In particular, high-fre...

  Background: Educational centers have higher standards for controlling noise pollution as it has been shown that noise pollution is a major cause of discomfort for teachers and students. Noise pollution reduces concentration, interferes in the conversation, and leads to dropouts and lower grades especially in mathematics. The present study aimed to evaluate noise pollution in the schools ...

background: noise is one of the most important harmful agents in work environment. noise pollution in oil refinery industries is related to workers' health. this study aimed to determine the overall noise pollution of an oil refinery operation and its frequency analysis to determine the control plan for a vent noise in these industries. methods: this experimental study performed in control unit...

A-weighted equivalent continuous noise levels of nine companies/industries in Jos-Bukuru metropolis were determined by using Impulse Precision Sound Level Meter Type 2209 in conjunction with -Octave Filter set Type 1616 and an audiometric test of five hundred and twenty four workers out of a total of seven hundred and ninety one volunteers interviewed were carried out. The physical measurements...

Vertical resolution is the most widely quoted and most frequently misunderstood performance specification for equipment that measures surface topography. Here I propose to use internationally standardized terms and definitions for measurement noise and surface topography repeatability as more meaningful quantifiers for measurement performance. A specific example is an interference microscope op...

In this paper, the noise equivalent power (NEP) of an optical sensor based ongraphene-superconductor junctions in the constant current mode of operation has beencalculated. Furthermore, the necessary investigations to optimize the device noise withrespect to various parameters such as the operating temperature, magnetic field, deviceresistance, voltage and current bias have been presented. By s...
