Abstract
The entire distribution is computed of the conductance of a quantum do t connected to two electron reservoirs by leads with a single propagat ing mode, for arbitrary transmission probability Gamma of the mode. Th e theory bridges the gap between previous work on ballistic leads (Gam ma=1) and on tunneling point contacts (Gamma much less than 1).
