For , near the stable Adler phase equation point , linearized noise obeys an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with relaxation rate . Its harmonic-model raw correlation is . Nonlinear drift also shifts the local mean at order . This describes times after relaxation but before appreciable phase slips; it is not a stationary infinite-time correlation of the unwrapped phase at fixed nonzero noise.
