Abstract
We analyze the spectrum of the electric-current autocorrelation function (noise power) in the Anderson impurity model biased by a finite transport voltage. Special emphasis is placed on the interplay of nonequilibrium effects and electron-electron interactions. Analytic results are presented for a perturbation expansion in the interaction strength . Compared to the noninteracting setup we find a suppression of noise for finite frequencies in equilibrium and an amplification in nonequilibrium. Furthermore, we use a diagrammatic resummation scheme to obtain nonperturbative results in the regime of intermediate . At finite voltage, the noise spectrum shows sharp peaks at positions related to the Kondo temperature instead of the voltage.
