Dissipative Josephson effect in S/N/S structure with vanishingly weak Josephson coupling

A mesoscopic S/N/S structure is studied theoretically. It is shown that a Josephson effect can occur in the structure even if the distance between the superconductors is much larger than the correlation length ξ N(T) and the Josephson coupling is negligibly weak. This effect arises if an additional current I flows along the normal conductor.
