don't forget the neutrino, that take away the half spin and the leptonic number.
this reaction happens in some condition. people interested in WL should read ALL their papers and slides, because many critics here and on nextbigfuture are addressed. the slides refers to many recognized resulst showing that proposed SPP, proton entanglement, betadelayed alpha,... about why LENR should not apear in many materials, it seems their arguments is that it need coherents protons that you can only find at the surface of hydrides, and linked to graphene... place where they present LENR proofs. also in NBF they argumet against proposed transmutation, but they seems not to have read the larsen slides, and mills experiments. the 5 peak mass spectroscopy is an argument for neutrons absorption, and not fusion. the experiments where LENR are triggered by IR laser talk for surface, quantum and SPP origine about neutrons ability to be absorbed, it is because those neutrons have a wide wave function covering many nucleus, since they are entangled population of neutrons created from entangled protons and electrons... of course it is not evident, might be wrong, but once you F&P effects, and also suppressed results from previous experiments since 19th century (xray tube with H2 transmutation, oil arcing, coke factory N isotopic anomaly) , it became one of the possible theory, no less credible than other... about semiclassic approximation, be carefull because it can kill the key element behind the phenomemon, which is surely based on : - surface - local electromagnetic effects - quantum entanglement - no classic fusion for me the only other candidate agains WL are similar theory based on protons directly or indirectly merging with nucleus around. the miracle of nogamma is also a big problem, because the wide spectrum of condition for LENR (different metal, gaz, graphene, ), where no dangerous gamma is produced, call for a generic mechanisme, not to a lucky branching ratio... WL propose one with gamma screening, maybe there is another similar ... but there is such a mechanism. the WL transparents are really a must to read, because it gives constraints to what can be the solutions. maybe WL is wrong, but the solution is constraint to be similar, according to experimental results. 2012/2/21 Jones Beene <jone...@pacbell.net> > Not sure where you are going with this - but the simple explanation of all > is it cannot happen, due to conservation of spin. > > Two half-spin fermions cannot fuse to form a half-spin neutron.
