What Wikipedia says

The Coulomb barrier, named after Coulomb's law, which is in turn named after physicist Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, is the energy barrier caused by electrostatic interaction that two nuclei need to overcome so they can get close enough to undergo a nuclear reaction such as nuclear fusion.
