	Mag Lab Education - Pioneers in Electricity and Magnetism: Charles-Augustin de Coulomb
		Coulomb was a Frenchman born on June 14, 1736.
		In 1777 Coulomb was awarded part of the Academy’s grand prize for a paper discussing the magnetic compass, which included an early description of his torsion balance.
		His study of electrostatic forces was fundamental to the field and his study of attractive and repulsive forces between magnetic poles laid the groundwork for Siméon-Denis Poisson’s mathematical theory of magnetic forces.

	Coulomb's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In physics, Coulomb's law is an inverse-square law indicating the magnitude and direction of electrostatic force that one stationary, electrically charged object of small dimensions (ideally, a point source) exerts on another.
		The formula to Coulomb's Law is of the same form as Newton's Gravitational Law: The electrical force of one body exerted on the second body is equal to the force exerted by the second body on the first.
		Coulomb's law can also be interpreted in terms of atomic units with the force expressed in Hartrees per Bohr radius, the charge in terms of the elementary charge, and the distances in terms of the Bohr radius.

	Coulomb's law Summary
		Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of the force that one charged particle exerts on a second charged particle is proportional to the magnitude of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
		Coulomb's law, in combination with principles of quantum physics, helps to describe the forces that bind electrons to the nucleus in atoms, that bind atoms together to form molecules, and that hold the molecules in liquids and solids together.
		Coulomb's law can also be interpreted in terms of atomic units with the force expressed in Hartrees per Bohr radius, the charge in terms of the elementary charge, and the distances in terms of the Bohr radius.

		If we neglect coulomb interactions (as it is true for light nucleit) then the number of neutrons is the same as the number of protons, N=Z=A/2.
		Coulomb interactions cannot be neglected however, mostly for heavier nuclei, which, due to their long range inrease with size.
		Coulomb repulsion acts on protons only, so in larger nuclei the depth of the potential well for protons is less then 40 MeV.

	Charles-Augustin de Coulomb Summary
		Coulomb is today best known for his measurements of the forces of magnetic and electric attraction and for his formulation of the law now known as Coulomb's law.
		In the remaining memoirs Coulomb showed that charge leakage is proportional to charge, and that static charge is distributed on conductor surfaces (not their interiors); and he produced a fully-developed magnetic theory.
		Coulomb is distinguished in the history of mechanics and of electricity and magnetism.

		Broadening induced by Coulomb repulsion was determined to have a major effect on the resolution of the miniature device.
		Factors that determine resolution include: (1) initial ion pulse width, (2) broadening by Coulomb repulsion between ions in both the ionization and drift regions, (3) spatial broadening by diffusion of the ion packet, and (4) ion-molecule reactions in the drift region.
		It is noted that the Coulomb contribution to the resolution depends on the total number of ions initially generated and thus should vary with the energy of the ionization laser pulse.

	Coulomb Barrier for Nuclear Fusion
		The fusion temperature obtained by setting the average thermal energy equal to the coulomb barrier gives too high a temperature because fusion can be initiated by those particles which are out on the high-energy tail of the Maxwellian distribution of particle energies.
		The presumed height of the coulomb barrier is based upon the distance at which the nuclear strong force could overcome the coulomb repulsion.
		The temperatures required to overcome the coulomb barrier for fusion to occur are so high as to require extraordinary means for their achievement.

		Coulomb was educated as an engineer and served in the French Corps de Génie, roughly equivalent to the Corps of Engineers in the U.S. In addition to his numerous accomplishments he examined the torsion properties of various materials including silk.
		A good example of repulsions between electrons in the same n level is the significant in crease in radius when we go from a neutral atom to its ion.
		Since Coulombic force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges we might expect the force of attraction between these ions to reflect the distance between them.

	D2Fusion
		The first of these miracles is to pass the, believed to be, nearly impenetrable repulsive Coulomb barrier preventing fusion of two atoms.
		This effectively cuts off the small-k part of the Coulomb 1/k k interaction leaving a short-range repulsion of full strength at distances less than about the cell size.
		For bosons like deuterons there is no exclusion principle, so the Coulomb repulsion is active for both large and small k BUT because it is so "undisturbed" ALL N(N-1)/2 repulsion terms get mixed symmetrically together and the remaining repulsion between any particular pair is diluted to 1/N what you would expect.

	Why electrical current flows smoothly and atoms don't collapse: 4/99
		One of the most important ramifications of this mutual repulsion is that only two electrons can occupy a single orbit within an atom at the same time.
		This fermion repulsion is different from and independent of the well-known repulsion between objects carrying the same electrical charge, known as Coulomb repulsion.
		In order to measure the more subtle fermion repulsion between electrons, the researchers had to carefully design their experiment so that Coulomb interactions were eliminated, Yamamoto says.

	On the possible existence of non Born-Oppenheimer hydrogen exci
		In Condensed Matter Nuclear Science one of the principal problems to be faced is the overcoming of the Coulomb barrier between nuclei, a question that from a theoretical point of view severely challenges experimental claims of low energy nuclear reactions.
		In 1992 Cerofolini proposed a model, the binuclear atom, that supposed the existence of excited states, normally accessible at energies available during chemical reactions, electrochemical experiments and ion implantation tests, in which nuclei are, in a counterintuitive manner, at a shorter distance than in normal ground state [1].
		The internuclear Coulomb repulsion can thus be counterbalanced by this stabilizing electronic energy contribution keeping the total energy of such configuration relatively low.

	The Liquid-Drop Model of Fission
		The first case happens in the limit where the charge density is small compared to the surface energy, and thus outweighs the Coulomb repulsion.
		The Coulomb repulsion will dominate over the surface energy, which will try to bring the shape back to spherical, and the two parts of the drop will be violently repelled from each other.
		It is the Coulomb repulsion that actually makes the nuclei move apart violently, and release energy.

		An important issue in electron-based lithography and scanning tunneling microscopy involving low-energy electrons is the repulsion between two adjacent electrons.

	Coulomb Force
		In the case of the electric "Coulomb" force, the magnitude is proportional to the product of the charges, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
		Since R / r is a unit vector pointing from one charge to the other, we see that the vector equation has the same magnitude as the scalar equation; the unit vector factor gives F a direction, but does not change its magnitude.
		Note also that both the Coulomb and gravitational forces are vectors: therefore the superposition of two or more forces is equal to their linear sum.

		In an insulating material, the Coulomb repulsion force is relieved if each electron can point its spin antiparallel to that of its nearest neighbors.
		In strongly correlated electron systems, the strength of the local electrostatic Coulomb repulsion present between the charge carriers, when compared to the width of their often-narrow energy bands, precludes the most common kind of superconductivity, which is based on bound electron pairs coupled by deformations of the lattice.
		When these repulsive forces are large enough, the electrons are prevented from ever doubly occupying a given copper atom.

		This increases the repulsive force between the two beams by (and I did work this out) exactly the ammount by which they were attracted by the magentic field.
		So he agrees with the rest frame observer that they should repel and the amount that they should is just a matter of a frame transformation going between the two perspectives.
		From the wire frame perspective the reason that the net result is attractive in current carrying wires is that according to the wire frame there is no net charge to produce a repulsive Coulomb force, but there is a net current in each wire to produce and respond to magnetic fields.
