We present a formula that relates the pumped current to the parametric derivatives of the scattering matrix $S(X_1,X_2)$ of the system. As an application we compute the statistical distribution of the pumped current in the case of a chaotic quantum dot.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1998-08-31T19:41:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "scattering approach", "parametric pumping", "pumped current", "chaotic quantum dot", "independent parameters" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
