Counting Statistics in Multi-stable Systems — •Gernot Schaller, Gerold Kießlich, and Tobias Brandes — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Hardenbergstraße 36, Technische Universität Berlin, D-10623 Berlin, Germany

Using a generic model for stochastic transport through a single quantum dot that is modified by the Coulomb interaction of environmental (weakly coupled) quantum dots, we derive general properties of the full counting statistics for multi-stable Markovian transport systems. We study the temporal crossover from multi-modal to broad uni-modal distributions depending on the initial mixture, the long-term asymptotics and the divergence of the cumulants in the limit of a large number of transport branches. These findings demonstrate that the counting statistics of a single resonant level may be used to probe background charge configurations.
