Baranger Department of Physics, Duke University, P.O.Box 90305, Durham North Carolina 27708-0305 (Dated: Received 29 Nov 2002) We study the effect of the exchange interaction on the Coulomb blockade peak height statistics in chaotic quantum dots. Because exchange reduces the level repulsion in the many body spectrum, it strongly affects the fluctuations of the peak conductance at finite temperature. We find that including exchange substantially improves the description of the experimental data. Moreover, it provides further evidence of the presence of high spin states (S ≥ 1) in such systems. PACS numbers: 73.23.Hk, 73.40.Gk, 73.63.Kv Transport properties of quantum dots (QDs) are strongly affected by interactions. A paradigmatic example is the Coulomb blockade (CB) of electron tunneling. 1,2,3 It occurs at low temperature when the thermal energy is smaller than the charging energy (EC ) required to add an electron to the QD. The conductance is then blockaded, being restored only at specific values of the gate voltage Vg of a nearby gate ca- pacitively coupled to the QD. This leads to a series of sharp CB conductance peaks. The statistical properties of these peaks reflect the mesoscopic fluctuations of the (many-body) spectrum and wave-functions of the QD. In particular, they encode information about the non-trivial spin statistics that arises from the presence of exchange, the most important part of the residual interaction. 3,4 Both the peak height distribution (PHD) and the peak spac- ing distribution have been studied in detail (see Ref. 2 for a review), though the latter has received most of the attention. This is mainly due to the fact that early measurements 5,6 of the PHD were found to be in good agreement with the con- stant interaction (CI) model,
