 abstract = {We model one-dimensional transport through each open channel of a
quantum wire by a Luttinger liquid with different interaction parameters
for the leads, the contacts, and the wire, and with two barriers at the
contacts. We show that this simple model explains several features of
recent experiments, such as the flat conductance plateaus observed at
finite temperatures and lengths, and universal conductance corrections
in different channels. We discuss the possibility of seeing
resonancelike features at very low temperatures.},
