White noise is also called "snow" and it looks like a snow storm on the screen. It is the result of an analog receiver not getting a signal and it can be compared to the hiss from a radio when it loses its signal. Modern televisions often suppresses the noise and digital televisions do not suffer from it at all.

Does white noise sound help one fall asleep?
There is not much scientific proof that it does. White noise is basically the noise one hears when the television shows static on the screen. Some individuals claim that it helps them relax, others say the opposite. In any case, white noise is not harmful as long as the volume is kept at a reasonable level. One can always try it out, and decide for oneself. Remember that everyone is different.
What is white noise?
White noise is random sound that contains an equal amount of all the frequency components across the spectrum one is testing. It sounds sorta like the hiss one hears when a television is tuned to a blank channel (if the television doesn't automatically mute the sound when no signal is present, however). If one has white noise and examines the signal level of, say, the 55 cycle per second signal component, it will be the same as, say, the 927 cycle per second signal component, or the 2651 cycle per second signal component.

What do you mean by Gaussian noise?
Gaussian noise is similar to white noise, but it falls within a narrower range of frequencies. In communications, it is produced by the movement of electricity through the line. You see and hear that when you have your television on an empty channel. Within photos and videos, Gaussian noise is in the form of random patterns, and this is what makes things look slightly blurry.

Can you get white noise filter speakers to block out sound of your neighbors?
In thoery, yes it would probably work. I think it would probably be annoying though, as it would also block out the sound of everything going on in your own home, such as the TV you are trying to watch or music you are listening to. At night, putting on a white noise track can help block out sounds completely helping you fall asleep. Personally, I live in a dorm room and sometimes my roommate is watching TV when I want to study. I created an hour long white noise track using the free program Audacity and I play it through ear-canal headphones to block out the noise of the TV. After a few minutes of getting used to the hiss it works very well and creates a distraction free environment for my studies.
What is the difference between white Gaussian noise and additive white Gaussian noise?
A Gaussian noise is a type of statistical noise in which the amplitude of the noise follows that of a Gaussian distribustion whereas additive white Gaussian noise is a linear combination of a Gaussian noise and a white noise (white noise has a flat or constant power spectral density).
