Source code for fdtdx.core.physics.metrics

"""Electromagnetic field metrics and normalization utilities.

This module provides functions for computing various electromagnetic field metrics
like energy density and Poynting flux, as well as field normalization operations.
All functions support JAX's automatic differentiation and work with the standard
FDTD field array shapes.
