Table Corrections

Table corrections record changes to lookup tables: constants, units, matrices, commutators, Fourier transforms, angular momentum coefficients, special functions, Hamiltonians, gates, and character tables.

No public table correction entries have been recorded yet for the current draft build.

Record table corrections for:

  • wrong matrix entries,
  • wrong signs or phases,
  • wrong units or dimensions,
  • stale constants,
  • mislabeled rows or columns,
  • broken source links,
  • generated table mismatches,
  • ambiguity that can change a calculation.

Typographic cleanup does not need a table correction unless it changes interpretation.

Before marking a table correction fixed:

  • compare against the canonical page,
  • check references or official standards,
  • inspect nearby entries for the same error pattern,
  • check units and dimensions,
  • run build,
  • update any figure, formula, or problem page that copied the table entry.

The highest-risk tables are:
