In 1851, George Gabriel Stokes derived an expression, now known as Stokes law, for the frictional force – also called drag force – exerted on spherical objects with very small Reynolds numbers in a viscous fluid. Stokes' law is derived by solving the Stokes flow limit for small Reynolds numbers of the Navier–Stokes equations.
Is a stokes four-vector like (1 1 0 0) being horizontal polarized vector can be treated as a quantum state? If the answer is yes, this state can be used to construct density matrix?

I was wondering, how you break down dS to something with dA? I know that dS is equal to ndS. The n is equal to grad f / (magnitude of grad f) and the dS is equal to the same as the magnitude of grad f right? So is the formula the same as double integral of region D (curl F * grad f) dA?
