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:

Thermodynamic uncertainty relation in atomic-scale quantum conductors
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test the thermodynamic uncertainty relation (TUR) in nanoscale systems and demonstrate that the TUR holds in this quantum coherent system, based on calculations, they go on to argue that TUR can identify transport mechanisms and pinpoint deviations from noninteracting-electron coherent dynamics.

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.
