Nonanalytic features are interesting in physics as they carry valuable information about the physical properties of the system. These properties manifest themselves in observables containing a one- or two-particle spectral function. In this…
The auto-correlation function and the frequency power spectral density due to a super-position of uncorrelated exponential pulses are considered. These are shown to be independent of the degree of pulse overlap and thereby the intermittency…
