The forces involved in LENR will disrupt the orbits of electrons and therefore will make spin coupling unlikely.
On the way to a fusion event, at some point, all the electrons orbiting the nucleus will be striped and just the nuclei will participate in the fusion reaction remain. I believe in an energetic fusion reaction in which all the electrons that were orbiting the associated nuclei are displaced at a distance from the reaction. Furthermore, there is a intense resonant dipole motion that powers the fusion event and that underpins and is inherent to a energetic fusion event. The orbiting electrons cannot transfer there angular momentum to the nucleus because their orbits have been totally disrupted. Most electrons disappear; they have been converted into bosons by entanglement with photons and reside in polariton solitons.
