Spins on surfaces of superconductors are currently believed to be responsible for the 1/f flux noise in SQUIDs and Josephson qubits [1,2,3,4,5].
In recent experiments the spin contribution to the inductance of superconducting wires was measured [6]. This inductance describes the response to a current, which polarizes spins by creating
magnetic fields on the surface. In particular low frequency fluctuations of the complex inductance were observed with roughly a 1/f noise spectrum. We provide an analysis of inductance noise in analogy to the well known theory
of "noise of noise" and analyze some microscopic models that could explain these experiments.
