Quantum 1/f noise is claimed to be an intrinsic part of quantum mechanics (see the debate section below). The model is based on the scattering of different particles off one another in solid state physics. Quantum 1/f noise is also claimed to be a source of "chaos" in such systems.

Famous quotes containing the words quantum and/or noise:
“A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.”
—Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)
“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature—trees, flowers, grass—grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence.... We need silence to be able to touch souls.”
—Mother Teresa (b. 1910)
