On the use of shot noise for photon counting [PDF]
, 2015 Lieu et al. (2015) have recently claimed that it is possible to substantially improve the sensitivity of radio astronomical observations. In essence, their proposal is to make use of the intensity of the photon shot noise as a measure of the photon ...

Road traffic noise and health-related quality of life: A cross-sectional study
Noise and Health, 2013 Evidence is emerging linking environmental noise to health problems. Noise can affect health directly and indirectly: For example, noise sensitivity moderates the effects of noise annoyance, which in turn mediates the effects of noise exposure.

Noise sensitivity of an atomic velocity sensor [PDF]
, 2005 We use Bloch oscillations to accelerate coherently Rubidium atoms. The variation of the velocity induced by this acceleration is an integer number times the recoil velocity due to the absorption of one photon. The measurement of the velocity variation is

Average Sensitivity and Noise Sensitivity of Polynomial Threshold Functions [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Computing, 2014 We give the first non-trivial upper bounds on the average sensitivity and noise sensitivity of degree-$d$ polynomial threshold functions (PTFs). These bounds hold both for PTFs over the Boolean hypercube and for PTFs over $\R^n$ under the standard $n$-dimensional Gaussian distribution.

Weak value amplification and beyond the standard quantum limit in position measurements [PDF]
, 2015 In a weak measurement with post-selection, a measurement value, called the weak value, can be amplified beyond the eigenvalues of the observable. However, there are some controversies whether the weak value amplification is practically useful or not in ...

Cooperativity, Sensitivity, and Noise in Biochemical Signaling [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2008 Cooperative interactions among the binding of multiple signaling molecules is a common mechanism for enhancing the sensitivity of biological signaling systems. It is widely assumed that this increase in sensitivity of the mean response implies the ability to detect smaller signals.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.
