ABSTRACT: In this paper, we discuss the full counting statistics of superconducting quantum dot
contacts. We discuss the effects both of phonon and onsite electronic interaction
focusing on the experimentally most relevant case of strong onsite electronic
interactions. We find that in general, the Josephson effect and multiple Andreev reflections in these systems are
strongly suppressed due to the onsite interaction. However, in case resonant
phonons are found, the effect of the onsite interaction can be overcome.
