Abstract

Description

We study the power spectrum of a class of noise effects generated by means of a digital-like disorder in the traveling variable of the conjectured Ginzburg-Landau-Montroll kink excitations moving along the walls of the microtubules. We have found a 1/f^α noise with α\in (1.82-2.04) on all the time scales we have considered
8 pp latex (with 2 eps figs), based on a contribution presented by HC Rosu at the Workshop on Biophysics of Microtubules in Houston (April 12-14/96)
