Optical switching of radical pair conformation enhances magnetic sensitivity
Gian Giacomo Guerreschi, Markus Tiersch, Ulrich E. Steiner +1
The yield of chemical reactions involving intermediate radical pairs is influenced by magnetic fields well beyond the levels expected from energy considerations. This dependence ca…

Decoherence in the chemical compass: The role of decoherence for avian magnetoreception
Markus Tiersch, Hans J. Briegel
Contrary to the usual picture that decoherence destroys quantum properties and causes the quantum-to-classical transition, we argue that decoherence can also play a constructive ro…
