Description

The following modules need their module doc-string improved (this is the first docstring in the file) to include the following information:

  • A description of the physical content of the module (file) (or if it is the Basic module an overall physical description of the physics within that directory).
  • The current status, i.e. what are the important definitions and lemmas in that file or directory.
  • What is left to be done, with referenced TODO items.

An example is given in

If you update one of these please change the status of it here, or write a comment on this issue. More modules may be added to this list.

Research direction

Use the example in PhysLean/ClassicalMechanics/HarmonicOscillator/Basic.lean as the reference, then inspect the module docstrings in PhysLean/Electromagnetism/Basic.lean, PhysLean/Particles/StandardModel/Basic.lean, and PhysLean/Electromagnetism/MaxwellEquations.lean. Done means each first docstring describes the physical content, current definitions and lemmas, remaining work, and referenced TODO items; update the checklist or comment on the issue.
