invariance in physics

Basic space-time symmetries keep physical laws the same under various conditions {invariance, physics}. Baryon number, spatial rotation, and space-time translation are always invariant.

Charge conjugation, parity, and time reversal combined are invariant for all physical laws. Charge conjugation and parity together are invariant, except for strange-particle decays in weak nuclear forces. Mass-strength and strong-force-strength differences in up and down and other quarks cause charge-conjugation symmetry breaking. Parity breaks down in weak nuclear forces. Time reversal breaks down in weak nuclear forces.
