Abstract
We analyse conditions for an appearance of the electrostatic Aharonov- Bohm interference in two systems: a single-channel quantum-wire loop a nd an open ballistic quantum dot. We show that in the first system the effect will be destroyed by charge fluctuations, which probably is th e reason why it has not been clearly observed, while in the second sys tem the effect is still open for exploration.
