Non-equilibrium noise in transport across a tunneling contact between $ν= 2/3$ fractional quantum Hall edges

In a recent experimental paper [1] a qualitative confirmation of the existence of upstream neutral modes at $ν= 2/3$ quantum Hall edge was reported. Using the chiral Luttinger liquid theory of quantum Hall edge we develop a quantitative model of the experiment [1]. A good quantitative agreement of our theory with the experimental data reinforces the conclusion of existence of the upstream neutral mode. Our model also enables us to extract important quantitative information about non-equilibrium processes in Ohmic and tunneling contacts from the experimental data. In particular, for $ν= 2/3$, we find a power-law dependence of the neutral mode temperature on the charge current injected from the Ohmic contact.
