Scattering theory of thermal and excess noise in open conductors
Abstract
Thermal fluctuations at equilibrium and excess fluctuations in the presence of transport in open multiprobe conductors are related to the scattering matrix of the conductor. The fluctuation-dissipation theorem for multiprobe conductors is discussed. A general expression for the excess noise in the presence of transport is derived. These results are applied to conductors which exhibit the quantized Hall effect. If backscattering is suppressed, excess noise is also suppressed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
