48. It is worth mentioning that the background charge noise could be non-Gaussian, for example, when there are a few two-level charge fluctuators strongly coupled to the qubit: Paladino, E., Faoro, L., Falci, G. and Fazio, R., Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 228304 (2002); Nguyen, A.K. and Girvin, S.M., Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 127205 (2001).

50. The free-induction-decay signal in the experiment decayed faster than the calculation based on the same x as used to fit the echo data. This suggests that in the low-frequency range there existed more noise spectral density than the assumed 1/f spectrum.
