 130    Reproduces high-T limit (Dulong-Petit: C_V = 3R).
 131    But gets low-T wrong (goes to 0 too fast). -/

 140/-- Debye model for solids:
 141
 142    Distribution of frequencies up to cutoff ω_D.
 143    Density of states: g(ω) ∝ ω²
 144
 145    C_V = 9R (T/Θ_D)³ ∫₀^(Θ_D/T) x⁴eˣ/(eˣ-1)² dx
 146
 147    Low T: C_V ∝ T³ (matches experiment!)
 148    High T: C_V → 3R (Dulong-Petit)
 149
 150    The T³ law is the key success. -/

 153/-- Debye T³ law at low temperature:
 154
 155    C_V = (12π⁴/5) R (T/Θ_D)³
 156
 157    This is EXACT as T → 0.
 158
 159    In RS: The T³ comes from 3D × ω² density of states.
 160    The 3D is essential! -/
