Abstract

Quantum mechanics requires that identical particles are treated as indistinguishable. This requirement leads to correlations in the fluctuating properties of a system. Theoretical predictions are made for an experiment on a multi-lead chaotic quantum dot which can identify exchange effects in electronic current-current correlations. Interestingly, we find that the ensemble averaged exchange effects are of the order of the channel number, and are insensitive to dephasing.
