OSTI ID:7220850

The natural fluctuations of the tunnel current in Josephson junctions due to scattering of quasiparticle excitations by phonons in superconductors which form such a junction are analyzed. The spectra of natural fluctuations of the quasiparticle current, of the critical current, and of the Josephson-current frequency are calculated. An expression is derived for the natural width of the Josephson-current line, which is then evaluated and compared with the experiment.
