Abstract
We compute the DC conductance for a homogeneous sine–Gordon model and an impurity system, which in the conformal limit can be reduced to a Luttinger liquid, by means of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz and standard potential scattering theory. We demonstrate that unstable particles and resonances in impurity systems lead to a sharp increase of the conductance as a function of the temperature, which is characterized by the Breit–Wigner formula.
