What (who) is multiplet - definition

REPRESENTATION OF A MATHEMATICAL STRUCTURE
Multiplets

multiplet         
¦ noun Physics a group of closely associated things, especially closely spaced spectrum lines or atomic energy levels, or subatomic particles differing only in a single property.
Origin
1920s: from multiple, on the pattern of words such as doublet and triplet.
Multiplet         
In physics and particularly in particle physics, a multiplet is the state space for 'internal' degrees of freedom of a particle, that is, degrees of freedom associated to a particle itself, as opposed to 'external' degrees of freedom such as the particle's position in space. Examples of such degrees of freedom are the spin state of a particle in quantum mechanics, or the color, isospin and hypercharge state of particles in the Standard model of particle physics.
Isospin multiplet         
Isotopic multiplet
In particle physics, isospin multiplets are families of hadrons with approximately equal masses. All particles within a multiplet, have the same spin, parity, and baryon numbers, but differ in electric charges.

Multiplet

In physics and particularly in particle physics, a multiplet is the state space for 'internal' degrees of freedom of a particle, that is, degrees of freedom associated to a particle itself, as opposed to 'external' degrees of freedom such as the particle's position in space. Examples of such degrees of freedom are the spin state of a particle in quantum mechanics, or the color, isospin and hypercharge state of particles in the Standard model of particle physics. Formally, we describe this state space by a vector space which carries the action of a group of continuous symmetries.
