  "abstract": "We study Coulomb blockade effects in the thermodynamic quantities of a weakly disordered metallic grain coupled to a metallic lead by a tunneling contact with a large conductance $g_T$. We consider the case of broken time-reversal symmetry and obtain expressions for both the {\\em ensemble averaged} amplitude of the Coulomb blockade oscillations of the thermodynamic potential and the correlator of its {\\em mesoscopic fluctuations} for a finite mean level spacing $\\delta$ in the grain. We develop a novel method which allows for an exact evaluation of the functional integral arising from disorder averaging. The results and the method are applicable in the temperature range $\\delta \\ll T \\ll E_C$.",
