Abstract
THIS paper deals with the mathematical analysis of noise obtained by passing random noise through physical devices. The random noise considered is that which arises from shot effect in vacuum tubes or from thermal agitation of electrons in resistors. Our main interest is in the statistical properties of such noise and we leave to one side many physical results of which Nyquist's law may be given as an example. <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1</sup>
