The physics of noise /
For a physicist, "noise" is not just about sounds, but refers to any random physical process that blurs measurements, and in so doing stands in the way of scientific knowledge. This book deals with the most common types of noise, their properties, and some of their unexpected virtues. The...

| 545 | |a Edoardo Milotti is Professor of Physics at the University of Trieste, Italy. After working mostly in experimental particle physics, he has also authored papers on noise processes in physics, and on the physics of cancer. His longtime research interests are in the direction of the analysis of experimental data and in the modeling of complex phenomena. He has published over 200 scientific papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals. He lives in Trieste, Italy, with his wife Alessandra. | ||
