Aug 29, 2018 at 18:52 comment added j.c. @user54826 Thanks for letting me know. However, the paper was a different one. I've edited my answer to link to an internet archive of the scan I originally referenced, but here's the DOI link doi.org/10.1063/1.1770483

Aug 13, 2013 at 19:10 comment added user27777 I second j.c.'s reference to Dicke's justifiably classic paper. It's highly readable. Also let me put in a plug for Harry Nyquist's 1928 Phys Rev paper "thermal agitation of electric charge in conductors." Google the complete title and you'll get a PDF. In my view this paper ranks up there with Carnot's on heat engines in that by considering a very specific (and simple) model, Nyquist is able to derive a deep, universal result which also explains Johnson's noise measurement. After Einstein's Brownian motion paper this is the second (to my knowledge) fluctuation-dissipation theorem
