Criticality in the brain: A synthesis of neurobiology, models and cognition. (2017, methodology): “…a very broad range of physical systems over many decades (Kosterlitz and Thouless, 1973; Yang and Lee, 1952) and their study remains one of the most active areas of research in branches of physics such as statistical mechanics (Papanikolaou et al., 2011; Sethna et al., 2001; Zapperi et al., 2005).”
Fitting and goodness-of-fit test of non-truncated and truncated power-law distributions (2012, background): “…is triggered simply by a small driving or perturbation (the slow motion of tectonic plates for earthquakes, the continuous pumping of solar radiation in hurricanes, etc.); then, this highly nonlinear relation between input and output can be labeled as crackling noise (Sethna et al., 2001).”
