Charge symmetry of nucleon parton distributions
ID: charge-symmetry-of-nucleon-parton-distributions
The approximate equality of proton and neutron parton distribution functions after interchanging up quarks and down quarks, including their antiquarks. It follows from the corresponding isospin symmetry when electromagnetic and light-quark mass-difference effects are neglected. Isospin-singlet sea distributions are unchanged.
