The remarkably large persistent currents that are observed in disordered micron-scale gold rings at low temperatures have recently been explained in a theory of non-interacting electrons scattered by crystal grain boundaries. The present…
In a weakly disordered metal electron interactions are responsible for both decoherence of the quasi-particles as well as for quantum corrections to thermodynamic properties. We consider electrons which are interacting with…
We study a mesoscopic superconducting ring threaded by a magnetic flux when the single particle level spacing is not negligible. It is shown that, for a superconducting ring with even parity, the behavior of persistent current is equivalent…
Mesoscopic loop is proposed in many works as possible solid-state quantum bit, i.e. two-state quantum system. The quantum oscillations of resistance and of rectified voltage observed on asymmetric superconducting loops give evidence of the…
We analyse small-amplitude oscillations of a weakly viscous electrically conducting liquid drop in a strong uniform DC magnetic field. An asymptotic solution is obtained showing that the magnetic field does not affect the shape eigenmodes,…

We show that several novel effects related to persistent currents can arise in open systems, which have no analogue in closed or isolated systems. We have considered a system of a metallic ring coupled to two electron reservoirs. We show…
