  Recent experiments indicate a connection between the low- and high-frequency
noise affecting superconducting quantum systems. We explore the possibilities
that both noises can be produced by one ensemble of microscopic modes, made up,
e.g., by sufficiently coherent two-level systems (TLS). This implies a relation
between the noise power in different frequency domains, which depends on the
distribution of the parameters of the TLSs. We show that a distribution,
natural for tunneling TLSs, with a log-uniform distribution in the tunnel
splitting and linear distribution in the bias, accounts for experimental
observations.
