Electron–Electron Dipolar Interaction Poses a Challenge to the Radical Pair Mechanism of Magnetoreception

[Image: see text] A visual magnetic sense in migratory birds has been hypothesized to rely on a radical pair reaction in the protein cryptochrome. In this model, magnetic sensitivity originates from coherent spin dynamics, as the radicals couple to magnetic nuclei via hyperfine interactions. Prior s...
