Abstract
Noise mechanisms limit the accuracy of precision measurements. Although many sources of noise are well understood, the origin of the "1/f" or "flicker" noises remains, in general, a mystery in spite of their remarkably widespread occurance in nature. In this paper a review is given of the systems exhibiting I / f noise and the postulates researchers have made about its origin.Keywords
