We show that for general $N$, one needs to consider the effects of higher-order Fermi liquid corrections even to describe low-voltage current and noise. We also show that the noise exhibits complex behaviour due to the interplay between coherent shot noise, and noise arising from interaction-induced scattering events. We treat various imperfections relevant to experiments, such as the effects of asymmetric dot-lead couplings.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-11-23T21:15:36.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "71.10.Ay", "71.27.+a", "72.15.Qm" ], "keywords": [ "kondo regime", "non-equilibrium transport", "higher-order fermi liquid corrections", "low-energy behaviour corresponds", "carbon nanotube dots" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2009, "month": "Oct", "volume": 80, "number": 15, "pages": 155322 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..80o5322M" } } }
