\textit{First, this is NOT acceptable as a way of citing work in academic journals such as AJP. As shown in class, see the article by the AJP editors on how to properly format a paper for AJP, the \href{https://www.authorea.com/users/18589/articles/83318/_show_article}{lab instructions} about Johnson Noise and Shot Noise for examples of how to use Authorea to cite work, and also the \href{https://www.authorea.com/users/9932/articles/12628/_show_article}{Authorea tutorial} on this site, all of which have been discussed in class. }  \textit{Maybe it is time to take a look at what your course text (Melissinos) has to say. Did you refer to it? See pages 122 - 133 for Johnson noise. For Shot noise, start with the TeachSpin manual. }  \textit{Second, your reference is another student's unpublished lab report? Your assignment is to write up your results as if they were to be submitted to the American Journal of Physics, so you need to find a better (more reliable and more accurate) reference for Johnson Noise and Shot Noise than that. There are many good references to original literature on Johnson Noise and Shot noise in the TeachSpin manual and in Melissinos (for Johnson noise), and references to the original literature in the \href{https://www.authorea.com/users/18589/articles/83318/_show_article}{lab instructions} you were provided. }
