    "abstract": "We provide the theoretical framework to understand the phenomenology and\nstatistics of single-molecule (SM) signals arising in Surface-Enhanced Raman\nScattering (SERS) under the presence of so-called electromagnetic hot-spots\n(HS\u0027s). We show that most characteristics of the SM-SERS phenomenon can be\ntracked down to the presence of tail-like (power law) distribution of\nenhancements and we propose a specific model for it. We analyze, in the light\nof this, the phenomenology of SM-SERS and show how the different experimental\nmanifestations of the effect reported in the literature can be analyzed and\nunderstood under a unified ``universal\u0027\u0027 framework with a minimum set of\nparameters.",
