Using qubits to measure fidelity in mesoscopic systems.
We point out the similarities in the definition of the "fidelity" of a quantum system and the generating function determining the full counting statistics of charge transport through a quantum wire and suggest to use flux or charge qubits for their measurement. As an application we use the notion of fidelity within a first-quantized formalism in order to derive new results and insights on the generating function of the full counting statistics.
