We study the persistent currents induced by the Aharonov-Bohm effect in a closed ring which either embeds or is directly side coupled to a quantum dot at Kondo resonance. We predict that in both cases, the persistent current is very…
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…

We argue that at zero temperature an isolated metal particle (or an AB ring) with spin-orbit interaction and odd number of electrons will have a permanent magnetic moment, even in zero magnetic field (flux). In a zero-field-cooled state…
