Geometrical dependence of the low-frequency noise in superconducting flux qubits (open access)

Geometrical dependence of the low-frequency noise in superconducting flux qubits

Article reporting on a study of a series of 85 devices of vary design using a general method for directly measuring the low-frequency flux noise (below 10 Hz) in compound Josephson-junction superconducting flux qubits. The results support the hypothesis that local impurities in the vicinity of the qubit wiring are a key source of low-frequency flux noise in superconducting devices.

Solar Turbulence in Earth's Global and Regional Temperature Anomalies (open access)

Solar Turbulence in Earth's Global and Regional Temperature Anomalies

This article presents a study of the influence of solar activity on the earth's temperature. In particular, the authors focus on the repercussion of the fluctuations of the solar irradiance on the temperature of the Northern and Southern hemispheres as well as on land and ocean regions.
