Quantum mechanics govern the behavior of matter at the atomic and
subatomic levels in
exotic and counterintuitive ways as compared to the everyday world of classical
physics.
Early on, two teams had spied a telltale anomaly in the
subatomic wreckage: an excess of energy from proton collisions that hinted at new
physics perhaps produced by WIMPs (or, to be fair, many additional
exotic possibilities).
Remarkably, photosynthesis appears to derive its ferocious efficiency not from the familiar physical laws that govern the visible world but from the seemingly
exotic rules of quantum mechanics, the
physics of the
subatomic world.
