Quantum shot noise probes the dynamics of charge transfers through a quantum conductor, reflecting whether quasiparticles flow across the conductor in a steady stream, or in syncopated bursts. We have performed high-sensitivity shot noise…
Low temperature transport through a quantum dot in the Kondo regime proceeds by a universal combination of elastic and inelastic processes, as dictated by the low-energy Fermi-liquid fixed point. We show that as a result of inelastic…

One-dimensional metals, such as quantum wires or carbon nanotubes, can carry charge in arbitrary units, smaller or larger than a single electron charge. However, according to Luttinger theory, which describes the low-energy excitations of…

We propose a highly-scalable method to compute the statistics of charge transfer in driven conductors. The framework can be applied in situations of non-zero temperature, strong coupling to terminals and in the presence of non-periodic…
Shot noise is not normally evident in bulk solid-state conductors, since it is strongly attenuated by inelastic collisions. The ``anomalous'' emergence of macroscopic shot noise is discussed in G. Gomila and L. Reggiani, Phys. Rev. B 62,…
