We describe a new model of massless thermal bosons which predicts an hyperbolic fluctuation spectrum at low frequencies. It is found that the partition function per mode is the Euler generating function for unrestricted partitions $p(n)$.…
Current noise provides useful information on correlations important for transport properties of mesoscopic systems. Of particular interest, both experimentally and theoretically, are heterostructures of normal metals and superconductors. We…
We identify the different contributions to quantum interference in a mesoscopic metallic loop in contact with two superconducting electrodes. At low temperature, a flux-modulated Josephson coupling is observed with strong damping over the…
The fluctuation-dissipation theorem requires the presence of thermal noise in viscous fluids. The time and length scales of heavy ion collisions are small enough so that the thermal noise can have a measurable effect on observables. Thermal…
The fluctuations of electrical current provide information on the dynamics of electrons in quantum devices. Understanding the nature of these fluctuations in a quantum dot is thus a crucial step insofar as this system is the elementary…
We present a simple theoretical framework to describe the thermal noise of a microscopic mechanical beam in a viscous fluid: we use the Sader approach to describe the effect of the surrounding fluid (added mass and viscous drag), and the…
We use particle dynamics simulations to probe the correlations between noise and dynamics in a variety of disordered systems, including superconducting vortices, 2D electron liquid crystals, colloids, domain walls, and granular media. The…
We present a theory of conductance and noise in generic mesoscopic conductors connected in parallel, and we demonstrate that the additivity of conductance and of shot noise arises as a sole property of the junctions connecting the two (or…
In this lectures, we have described some essential features of loss of coherence by a qubit coupled to the environment. We have first presented well known semiclassical arguments that relate both decoherence and relaxation to the…
A semiclassical theory of dissipative Henon-Heiles system is proposed. Based on $\hbar$-scaling of an equation for evolution of Wigner quasiprobability distribution function in presence of dissipation and thermal diffusion, we derive a…
Current noise in nanoscale systems provides additional information beyond the electronic conductance. We report measurements at room temperature of the nonequilibrium "excess" noise in ensembles of atomic-scale gold junctions repeatedly…
We investigate the nonlinear Meissner effect microscopically. Previous studies did not consider a certain type of interaction effect on the nonlinear phenomena. The scattering amplitude barely appears without being renormalized into the…
The decoherence rate of a quantum dot coupled to a fluctuating environment described by a normal-metal superconductor junction is considered. The density-density correlator at low frequencies constitutes the kernel which enters the…
It is shown, with citing tunnel junction as an example, that mutual interplay of electron quantum transfers in a conducting system can be the fast mechanism for generation fundamental low-frequency flicker conductance fluctuations (1/f…
This paper augments the existing macroscopic circuit noise model for phase noise in relaxation oscillators by showing the microscopic origins of the noise and explains temperature dependency. The noise arises from fluctuation of the energy…
Systems near to quantum critical points show universal scaling in their response functions. We consider whether this scaling is reflected in their fluctuations; namely in current-noise. Naive scaling predicts low-temperature Johnson noise…
Intrinsic fluctuations around the solution of the lattice Boltzmann equation are described or modeled by addition of a white Gaussian noise source. For stationary states a fluctuation-dissipation theorem relates the variance of the…
Quantum behavior of superconducting nanowires may essentially depend on the employed experimental setup. Here we investigate a setup that enables passing equilibrium supercurrent across an arbitrary segment of the wire without restricting…
We examine critically the idea that fractional charges may carry electrical current in a conductor, much as do the normal electrons in a metallic Fermi liquid. We explore a range of issues that have gained the status of indispensability for…
We report a theoretical investigation on conductance fluctuation of mesoscopic systems. Extensive numerical simulations on quasi-one dimensional, two dimensional, and quantum dot systems with different symmetries (COE, CUE, and CSE)…
