We theoretically study the nonequilibrium transport properties of double quantum dots, in both series and parallel configurations. Our results lead to novel experimental predictions that unambiguously signal the transition from a Kondo state to an antiferromagnetic spin-singlet state, directly reflecting the physics of the two-impurity Kondo problem. We prove that the nonlinear conductance through parallel dots directly measures the exchange constant J between the spins of the dots. In serial dots, the nonlinear conductance provides an upper bound on J.
