\subsection{Remark}
*1. Unlike Mathematical Axioms that have all terms defined mathematically, the Axioms of Physics, oftentimes called ``Postulates'', are defined in terms of physical concepts that may also relate to measurements and may include basic physical assumptions derived on an experimental and physical-conceptual basis, such as the fundamental axiom of Local Quantum Field Theory, or Axiomatic Quantum Field Theory, also called Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT), that all quantum measurements and observations involve \emph{local} interactions in spacetime.
