Note that a negative Hydrogen ion implies not only complete removal of the Coulomb barrier, it actually reverses the force from the nucleus making it attractive rather than repulsive. IOW It should ensure massive rapid fusion, i.e. an explosion. Another reason why I doubt the validity of this model. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
