More details.  The complex roots of the product T are the complex roots
of the factors apw1, apw2, aqv1, aqv2.  Factors aqv1 and aqv2 are
always positive, and therefore have no complex roots.  Factors apw1 and
apw2 have imaginary part Im(s), so all complex roots are actually real.
Finally, each of these factors has one real root,
0.1918378646 and 0.1873378640 as shown.
