Stage-4 Polarization-Resolved Macroscopic-QED Control

ID: study.casimir_dp.polarization_resolved_qed_control

Represents the two transverse photon polarizations with Jones/Stokes states, propagates reciprocal or nonreciprocal reflection response, and evaluates basis invariance, mirror parity, matched controls, and helicity double contrasts.

Claim boundaries

• This badge locates a theory claim; it does not validate a physical effect or engineering application.
