β¦ Synopsis
In this chapter we review recent developments in both theoretical and experimental aspects of quantum shot noise. We discuss the properties of shot noise in systems of various sizes from mesoscopic, ballistic, systems to classical diffusive conductors. In particular we consider the effect of the elctron's Fermi statistics on shot noise. In addision, we discuss shot noise as a tool for charge measurements. The Fractional Quantum Hall system which gives rise to an appearance of new elementary excitations which carry a smaller charge, hence resulting in a suppressed shot noise.

## This article is dedicated to Hermann Grabert on the occasion of his 60th birthday. Theory predicts that electrons emitted from independent electron sources (metallic contacts) can nevertheless interfere. This interference is manifest in an exchange contribution to the shot noise correlation of
We present a numerical model for shot-noise suppression in a semiconductor quantum wire, based on parameters obtained from a purposely fabricated and characterized device. Shot-noise suppression is studied as a function of the voltage applied to the depletion gates forming the wire in a GaAs/AlGaAs
