Per-Olov Lowdin first proposed this phenomenon as a cause of spontaneous DNA mutation when a proton undergoes a tautomeric transition, interrupting the normal base pairing of nucleotides. An imaging technique invented by Binnig and Rohrer exploits this phenomenon. That imaging technique utilizes a platinum-iridium probe controlled by a Piezoelectric tube and amplifies signals from between the scanned material and the probe tip. This phenomenon is also exploited in (*) Esaki diodes.

For 10 points, name this phenomenon not accounted for in classical mechanics, in which a particle without enough energy to bypass a potential barrier does so.
