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.

Universality of non-equilibrium fluctuations in strongly correlated quantum liquids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show a precise experimental demonstration of Landau Fermi liquid theory extended to the non-equilibrium regime in a zero-dimensional system by combining transport and ultra-sensitive current noise measurements, and unambiguously identify the SU(2) (ref.

Quantum pumping with adiabatically modulated barriers in graphene

Rui Zhu, +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the angular and energy dependence of the pumped current (PC) was investigated and the direction of the PC can be reversed when a high potential barrier demonstrates stronger transparency than a low one, which results from the Klein paradox.

Probability distributions of linear statistics in chaotic cavities and associated phase transitions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established large deviation formulas for linear statistics on the transmission eigenvalues of a chaotic cavity, in the framework of random matrix theory, and derived a closed form expression for the universal limit, where the distribution of weakly nonanalytical points at the junction of the two regimes is due to phase transitions in an associated Coulomb gas problem.

Applied Bohmian mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a large list of examples showing how the Bohmian formalism provides a useful solution in different forefront research fields for this kind of problems (where the Bohmanian and the quantum hydrodynamic formalisms coincide).

Microscopic current dynamics in nanoscale junctions

TL;DR: In this article, an approach that combines a microcanonical picture of transport with time-dependent density-functional theory was employed to study the current flow dynamics in nanoscale quantum point contacts.

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.
