The four basic degrees of freedom of homogeneous INM are the
isoscalar scalar density
,
the isovector scalar density ,
the isoscalar
vector density s0, and the isovector vector density s1.
They can be expressed through the usual neutron and proton,
spin-up, and spin-down densities in the following way.
Similarly, densities of protons and neutrons
with spin up and down can be expressed as:
where
is the relative isospin excess,
is the relative spin excess, and
is the relative spin-isospin excess,
with
.
In symmetric unpolarized INM Ii = 0, while in asymmetric INM
.
Polarized INM has ,
and
spin-isospin polarized nuclear matter has .
