charge independence [¦chärj in·də′pen·dəns]

(nuclear physics)

The principle that the nuclear (strong) force between a neutron and a proton is identical to the force between two protons or two neutrons in the same orbital and spin state.

(particle physics)

As a generalization of the nuclear physics definition, the principle that the strong interactions of particles are unchanged if a particle is replaced by another particle of the same isotopic spin multiplet.
