Z2 peak of noise correlations in a quantum spin Hall insulator.

We investigate the current noise correlations at a quantum point contact in a quantum spin Hall structure, focusing on the effect of a weak magnetic field in the presence of disorder. For the case of two equally biased terminals we discover a robust peak: the noise correlations vanish at $B = 0 $ and are negative for $B\not = 0 $. We find that the character of this peak is intimately related to the interplay between time reversal symmetry and the helical nature of the edge states and call it the Z2 peak.
