Scientific paper

We consider quantum fluctuations of current in a metallic loop induced by varying magnetic flux. The dependence of the fluctuations on the flux change $\Phi$ contains a logarithmically divergent term periodic in $\Phi$ with the period $\Phi_0=hc/e$. The fluctuation is smallest near $\Phi=n\Phi_0$. The divergence is explained by a comparison with the orthogonality catastrophe problem. The $\Phi_0-$periodicity is related with the discreteness of "attempts" in the binomial statistics picture of charge fluctuations.
