Separation

undefined:

Separation is the degree to which to headmates are distinct or independent of each other. Members of median (sub)systems are often less separate than members of multiple (sub)systems.

Less-separated members may become more separate through budding, splitting, or similar processes and may become less separate through (partial) merging. Medianflux or mixedflux systems may experience varying separation of members.
