  "abstract": "We evaluate the full current statistics (FCS) in the low dimensional (1D and 2D) diffusive conductors in the incoherent regime, $eV\\gg E_{\\rm Th}=D/L^2$, $E_{\\rm Th}$ being the Thouless energy. It is shown that Coulomb interaction substantially enhances the probability of big current fluctuations for short conductors with $E_{\\rm Th}\\gg1/\\tau_E$, $\\tau_E$ being the energy relaxation time, leading to the exponential tails in the current distribution. The current fluctuations are most strong for low temperatures, provided $E_{\\rm Th}\\sim [(eV)^2/D\\nu_1^2\\bigr]^{1/3}$ for 1D and $E_{\\rm Th}\\sim (eV/g)\\ln g$ for 2D, where $g$ is a dimensionless conductance and $\\nu_1$ is a 1D density of states. The FCS in the \"hot electron\" regime is also discussed.",
