//! Backward Volume Magnetostatic Wave (BVMSW) model for perpendicularly magnetized films
//!
//! This module implements the dispersion relation for Backward Volume Magnetostatic Waves
//! (BVMSW) in thin ferromagnetic films with in-plane magnetization along the wavevector
//! direction (k ∥ M), or equivalently for out-of-plane magnetized films (k ⊥ M, k in-plane).
//!
//! # Physical Background
//!
//! In a film where the magnetization is saturated perpendicular to the plane by a
//! sufficiently strong applied field H_perp > M_s, spin waves propagating in the film
//! plane with wavevector **k** form volume modes. These modes have a characteristic
//! **backward** dispersion: in the purely dipolar regime (small k), the group velocity
//! is negative (energy flows opposite to phase), giving the name "backward volume".
//!
//! The dispersion relation for the perpendicularly magnetized case:
//!
//! ω² = (ω_H + ω_M λ_ex k²)(ω_H + ω_M λ_ex k² + ω_M (F_kd − 1))
//!
//! where:
//! - ω_H = |γ| μ₀ (H_ext − M_s)  (effective internal field)
//! - F_kd = (1 − e^{−kd}) / (kd)  → 1 as kd → 0, → 0 as kd → ∞
//!
//! The dipolar term ω_M(F_kd − 1) is **negative**, producing backward propagation
//! for small k where the dipolar interaction dominates over exchange.
//!
