Unconventional superconductivity in quantum dot systems — •Stephan Weiss and Jürgen König — Theoretische Physik, Universität Duisburg-Essen and CENIDE, 47048 Duisburg, Germany

For ultra-small quantum dots we study the interplay between spin degrees of freedom and induced superconducting correlations in a nonequilibrium transport setup. Several scenarios of reduced spin symmetry and the consequences for induced even- and odd-frequency order parameters, the Andreev current as well as the shot noise are discussed. Spin symmetry is either reduced by external magnetic fields and/or ferromagnetic leads [1]. Due to the reduced level structure, the single dot case differs from the recently studied double dot system [2].
