Shot noise in mesoscopic conductors
TLDR
Theoretical and experimental work concerned with dynamic fluctuations has developed into a very active and fascinating subfield of mesoscopic physics as discussed by the authors, which can be used to obtain information on a system which is not available through conductance measurements.About:

Pair tunneling and shot noise through a single molecule in a strong electron-phonon coupling regime
TL;DR: In this paper, a particle-hole transformation was proposed to enhance the visibility of pair tunneling in a strong electron-phonon coupling regime, which has no Franck-Condon suppression.

Pumped shot noise in adiabatically modulated graphene-based double-barrier structures.
TL;DR: This work investigated the pumped shot noise properties in adiabatically modulated graphene-based double-barrier structures and found that compared with the Poisson processes, the pumpedShot noise is dramatically enhanced where the dc pumped current changes flow direction, which demonstrates the effect of the Klein paradox.
Observation of Hot-Electron Shot Noise in a Metallic Resistor
TL;DR: The current noise of silver thin-film resistors as a function of current and temperature and for resistor lengths is measured to predict the independent hot-electron value first predicted for mesoscopic resistors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Charge and current distribution in graphs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the case where the graph is weakly connected to the wires and studied the correlations of the charge in such graphs out of equilibrium, as well as the distribution of the currents in the wires, inside the graph.

Transition from metallic to tunneling regimes in superconducting microconstrictions: Excess current, charge imbalance, and supercurrent conversion
TL;DR: In this paper, the Bogoliubov equations were used to model the transmission and reflection of particles at the tunnel junction of normal-superconducting micro-constriction contacts, and a simple theory for the $I\ensuremath{-}V$ curves of normal superconducting contacts was proposed to describe the crossover from metallic to tunnel junction behavior.
