Since the force on a charge +/- q = q * E wouldn't a field E of 10 million volts/meter across a thin membrane give a force of 1.6e-19 newtons on an ion (+/-) and an electron making it act like a helluva particle accelerator, that could overcome the repulsive coulomb force F = Z1* Z2 * kq^2/R^2 ? Or allow the electron to "neutralize" the charge on a H+ or D+ which would reduce the coulomb repulsive force to " Zip" allowing Cold Fusion ? Makes Kervran's Chicken transmutations more believable.
