The Spectral Form Factor (SFF) measures the fluctuations in the density of states of a Hamiltonian. We consider a generalization of the SFF called the Loschmidt Spectral Form Factor, $\textrm{tr}[e^{iH_1T}]\textrm{tr} [e^{-iH_2T}]$, for…

Synthetic models of Eulerian turbulence like so called "Kinematic Simulations" (KS) have been criticized by Thomson & Devenish (TD) (2005), who argued that sweeping decorrelation effects suppress pair dispersion in such models. We derive…
