Fig. 6

The experimental data (dots) are fitted by \(\exp (-t/\tau )/\tau\) (dashed curves) without any fitting parameters with the mean switching time τ directly taken from experimental data. Good agreement between fitting and experiment is observed at 21 mK and 80 mK cavity temperatures. One can note super-Poissonian distribution at intermediate cavity temperature 47 mK. Inset: The τ to σ ratio vs cavity temperature, showing deviation from Poissonian statistics.
