"""Cosmological distances and volumes: JAX-differentiable flat w0waCDM.
All integrals are computed via 256-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature for accuracy
and JAX-JIT compatibility. Physical conventions:
- Distances in Mpc (not Mpc/h unless noted)
- :math:`c = 299\\,792.458` km/s
- Flat geometry (:math:`\\Omega_k = 0`, so :math:`\\Omega_\\mathrm{DE} = 1 - \\Omega_m`)
**Dark energy equation of state** — Chevallier-Polarski-Linder (CPL):
.. math::
w(a) = w_0 + w_a (1 - a) = w_0 + w_a \\frac{z}{1+z}
The dark energy density factor integrates to (Linder 2003):
.. math::
f_\\mathrm{DE}(z) = (1+z)^{3(1+w_0+w_a)}
\\exp\\!\\left(\\frac{-3\\,w_a\\,z}{1+z}\\right)
For :math:`\\Lambda\\mathrm{CDM}`: :math:`w_0 = -1,\\;w_a = 0 \\Rightarrow f_\\mathrm{DE} = 1`.
The Hubble function is
.. math::
E(z) = \\frac{H(z)}{H_0} =
\\sqrt{\\Omega_m (1+z)^3 + (1-\\Omega_m)\\,f_\\mathrm{DE}(z)}
The comoving distance is
.. math::
\\chi(z) = \\frac{c}{H_0} \\int_0^z \\frac{dz'}{E(z')}
Derived distances (Hogg 2000):
.. math::
D_A(z) = \\frac{\\chi(z)}{1+z}, \\qquad
D_L(z) = (1+z)\\,\\chi(z)
For flat geometry the angular diameter distance between :math:`z_1` and :math:`z_2` is
(Hogg 2000, Eq. 19):
.. math::
D_A(z_1, z_2) = \\frac{\\chi(z_2) - \\chi(z_1)}{1 + z_2}
Comoving volume element and total:

\\frac{dV_c}{dz\\,d\\Omega} = \\frac{c}{H_0}\\,\\frac{\\chi^2(z)}{E(z)}, \\qquad
