Abstract
The transport of an N-channel spinless interacting electron gas through an ultrasmall normal tunnel junction coupled to a circuit with Ohmic impedance is studied and the current-voltage characteristics are calculated. We give a simple description in terms of an effective density of states of quasi-particles involved in the tunnelling process. This picture also proves useful for cotunnelling of interacting electrons in multijunction systems.Keywords
