It is well established that physical systems exhibit both ordered and chaotic behavior. The chaotic behavior of nanostructures such as open quantum dots has been confirmed experimentally and discussed exhaustively theoretically. This is manifested through random fluctuations in the electronic conductance. What useful information can be extracted from this noise in the conductance? In this contribution we shall address this question. In particular, we will show that the average maxima density in the conductance is directly related to the correlation function whose characteristic width is a measure of the energy- or applied magnetic field- correlation length. The idea behind the above was originally discovered in the context of the atomic nucleus, a mesoscopic system. Our findings are directly applicable to graphene.
