- Abstract: When assembling individual quantum components into a mesoscopic circuit, the
interplay between Coulomb interaction and charge granularity breaks down the
classical laws of electrical impedance composition. Here we explore
experimentally the thermal consequences, and observe an additional quantum
mechanism of electronic heat transport. The investigated, broadly tunable
test-bed circuit is composed of a micron-scale metallic node connected to one
electronic channel and a resistance. Heating up the node with Joule
dissipation, we separately determine, from complementary noise measurements,
both its temperature and the thermal shot noise induced by the temperature
difference across the channel (`delta-$T$ noise'). The thermal shot noise
predictions are thereby directly validated, and the electronic heat flow is
revealed. The latter exhibits a contribution from the channel involving the
electrons' partitioning together with the Coulomb interaction. Expanding heat
current predictions to include the thermal shot noise, we find a quantitative
agreement with experiments.

The adiabatic emission of heat pulses leads to a heat current that in linear response is given by the thermal conductance quantum.
To generate an electric current, we use a Mach--Zehnder interferometer that breaks the electron-hole symmetry and thereby enables a thermoelectric effect.
