In nuclear physics and particle physics, isospin (isotopic spin, isobaric spin) is a quantum number related to the strong interaction. Particles that are affected equally by the strong force but have different charges (e.g. protons and neutrons) can be treated as being different states of the same particle with isospin values related to the number of charge states.
Although it does not have the units of angular momentum and is not a type of spin, the formalism that describes it is mathematically similar to that of angular momentum in quantum mechanics, which means it can be coupled in the same manner. For example, a proton-neutron pair can be coupled in a state of total isospin 1 or 0. It is a dimensionless quantity and the name derives from the fact that the mathematical structures used to describe it are very similar to those used to describe the intrinsic angular momentum (spin).
This term was derived from isotopic spin, a confusing term to which nuclear physicists prefer isobaric spin, which is more precise in meaning. Isospin symmetry is a subset of the flavour symmetry seen more broadly in the interactions of baryons and mesons. Isospin symmetry remains an important concept in particle physics, and a close examination of this symmetry historically led directly to the discovery and understanding of quarks and of the development of Yang–Mills theory.
Isospin is defined for approx. same mass Hadron particles. Like proton and neutron.

Murray Gell-Mann - Isotopic spin (61/200)
To listen to more of Murray Gell-Mann’s stories, go to the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVV0r6CmEsFxKFx-0lsQDs6oLP3SZ9BlA
New York-born physicist Murray Gell-Mann (1929-2019) was a theoretical physicist. His considerable contributions to physics include the theory of quantum chromodynamics. He was awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on the theory of elementary particles. [Listener: Geoffrey West; date recorded: 1997]
TRANSCRIPT: In Chicago–I naturally made certain assumptions. One was that there was a difference between baryons and-well, no, let me start differently. One was that there were various interactions: there was gravitation; there was electromagnetism; there was a weak interaction giving rise to beta decay, mu decay, mu absorption and strang...

TRANSCRIPT: In Chicago–I naturally made certain assumptions. One was that there was a difference between baryons and-well, no, let me start differently. One was that there were various interactions: there was gravitation; there was electromagnetism; there was a weak interaction giving rise to beta decay, mu decay, mu absorption and strange analogues of beta decay and mu absorption. And then there was the strong interaction. And certain particles participated in the strong interaction–like pions and nucleons–and others did not–like muons and electrons and neutrinos. Then isotopic spin was presumably applicable to the strongly interacting particles, and the pion had isotopic spin I and the nucleon had isotopic spin one half, and isotopic spin was approximately conserved but its conservation was broken by electromagnetism because the electromagnetic current had a portion of it which was isotopic spin I and a portion that was isotopic spin zero. So in the emission of a photon you could either conserve isotopic spin or change it by a unit. In the emission of–emission and absorption of–a virtual photon you could violate isotopic spin conservation. That isotopic spin was a good concept for both pions and nucleons was being shown in our own laboratory in the experiments of Fermi and his collaborators. So it naturally occurred to me that isotopic spin might have something to do with the strange particles. The strange particles might be strongly interacting particles participating in the strong interaction, produced copiously because they were strongly interacting–but inhibited from decay, from rapid… but prevented from decaying rapidly by a conservation law, which was however slightly broken so that they could actually finally decay, but slowly. And I thought maybe isotopic spin was this conservation law that would prevent them from decaying rapidly. Then a strange particle might for example have isotopic spin five halves, if it had only enough energy to decay into a nucleon and one pion–but not two–then isotopic spin would prevent its decay into nucleon plus one pion. But–and here's the catch–electromagnetism would violate the conservation of isotopic spin and then permit it after all to decay–a little bit more slowly into nucleon plus pion, but only a little bit more slowly because electromagnetism is not that weak. So when I proposed this idea and we discussed it in our theory group at Caltech, it became clear that...well, I just discussed it with Goldberger and Adams, not with anyone else; not with Enrico, just with Goldberger and Adams. It was clear that the idea by itself wouldn't work.

Everybody's waiting Everybody's watching Even when you're sleeping Keep your ey-eyes open The tricky thing Is yesterday we were just children Playing soldiers Just pretending Dreaming dreams with happy endings In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords But now we've stepped into a cruel world Where everybody stands and keeps score Keep your eyes open Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown Everybody's watching to see the fallout Even when you're sleeping, sleeping Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard Every lesson forms a new scar They never thought you'd make it this far But turn around (turn around), oh they've surrounded you It's a showdown (showdown) and nobody comes to save you now But you've got something they don't Yeah you've got something they don't You've just gotta keep your eyes open Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown Everybody's watching to see the fallout Even when you're sleeping, sleeping Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes Keep your feet ready Heartbeat steady Keep your eyes open Keep your aim locked The night goes dark Keep your eyes open (Keep your eyes open [4x]) Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown Everybody's watching to see the fallout Even when you're sleeping, sleeping Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open Keep your ey-eyes open
In 1932, Nobel Prize winner Werner Heisenberg proposed the brilliant concept of isospin to describe the symmetry in atomic nuclei induced by the nearly identical properties between the proton and neutron.
