Quantum coherence and sensitivity of avian magnetoreception
Migratory birds and other species have the ability to navigate by sensing the geomagnetic field. Recent experiments indicate that the essential process in the navigation takes place in the bird’s eye and uses chemical reaction involving molecular ions with unpaired electron spins (radical pair).
