In optics the noise-equivalent flux density (NEFD) or noise-equivalent irradiance (NEI) of a system is the level of flux density required to be equivalent to the noise present in the system.[1] It is a measure used by astronomers in determining the accuracy of observations.[2]

The NEFD can be related to a light detector's Noise-Equivalent Power for a collection area A and a photon bandwidth ν by:

NEFD=ηNEPAν, where a factor η (often 2, in the case of switching between measuring a source and measuring off-source) accounts for the photon statistics for the mode of operation.
