This thorn evolves the Proca equations in generic spacetimes, as outlined in [1]. When setting the mass of the vector field \(\mu \) (parameter mu from thorn ProcaBase) to zero, the system reduces to the Maxwell equations in the Lorenz gauge.
“Right-hand-side” variables rhs_Ai, rhs_Ei, rhs_Aphi and rhs_Zeta defined in interface.ccl are given by equations (2.12), (2.13), (2.15) and (2.16) respectively in [1].

This section lists all the variables which are assigned storage by thorn Proca/ProcaEvolve. Storage can either last for the duration of the run (Always means that if this thorn is activated storage will be assigned, Conditional means that if this thorn is activated storage will be assigned for the duration of the run if some condition is met), or can be turned on for the duration of a schedule function.
