  The problem of resonant tunneling through a quantum dot weakly coupled to
spinless Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids has been studied. We compute the linear
conductance due to sequential tunneling processes upon employing a master
equation approach. Besides the previously used lowest-order golden rule rates
describing uncorrelated sequential tunneling (UST) processes, we systematically
include higher-order correlated sequential tunneling (CST) diagrams within the
standard Weisskopf-Wigner approximation. We provide estimates for the parameter
regions where CST effects can be important. Focusing mainly on the temperature
dependence of the peak conductance, we discuss the relation of these findings
to previous theoretical and experimental results.
