We discuss some recent results on the statistics of the Coulomb Blockade in disordered quantum dots containing spinless interacting fermions using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. We concentrate on the regime rs > ∼ 1, with finite dimensionless conductance g. We present significantly different results for the cases of a Coulomb and a nearest-neighbour bare interaction. We show th...

Coulomb-blockade oscillations of the conductance are a manifestation of singleelectron tunneling through a System of two tunnel junctions in series (see Fig. 1) [l]-[5]. The conductance oscillations occur äs the voltage on a nearby gate electrode is varied. This setup is the SET transistor described in See. 6 of Chap. 2. The number N of conduction electrons on an Island (or dot) between two tun...
