“…Charge-independence breaking (CIB) is well established in the two-nucleon (2N) system in the 1 S 0 state as evidenced by the values of the scattering lengths −23.75 ± 0.01, −17.3 ± 0.8, and −18.5 ± 0.3 fm [1,2] for the neutron-proton (np), proton-proton (pp) (with the Coulomb force subtracted), and neutron-neutron (nn) systems, respectively. That knowledge of CIB is incorporated into modern, high precision NN potentials, as exemplified by the standard semiphenomenological models: Av18 [3], CD Bonn [4], or NijmI and NijmII [5], as well as by the chiral NN forces [6][7][8]. Treating neutrons and protons as identical particles requires that nuclear systems are described not only in terms of the momentum and spin but also isospin states.…”
