Fig. 2

Ion tunneling in ion channels can be viewed as a basis for a quantum Ising model. A symmetric state on the left is a product state of ions occupying the two available quantum states marked red and blue. A broken symmetry state is shown on the right where the attractive and repulsive ionic arrangements are split into two distinct possibilities
