◄STATISTICAL PHYSICS OF GENE EXPRESSION
►GILLESPIE ALGORITHM AND ENZYME KINETICS

  • THE FANO FACTOR

    Poisson distribution and regulation of gene transcription ( see e.g.  Kondev's notes)

    Fano Factor

    see PBoC 19.3.1, 19.3.2, 19.3.3, 19.3.4

    Fano's factor is a ratio which is used in detector physics. 

    as a reference you can see the classic textbook R. Leo,  Techniques for Nuclear and Particle Physics Experiments. Par. 5.3
