Definition lists

Definition lists (also called description lists pair a term and a description together. They are often used in a "Definitions" section to define units or terms. Definition lists can appear in other sections as well, except for the Terms section, which provides a special syntax for defining terms.

Definition lists follow the syntax of:

`term:: Definition`

stem:[w]:: is the mass fraction of grains with a particular defect in the test sample;
stem:[m_D]:: is the mass, in grams, of grains with that defect;
stem:[m_S]:: is the mass, in grams, of the test sample.
