A specific $2$-dimensional Galois representation of $G_{\mathbb{Q}_2}$ and its Langlands correspondence

I am interested in understanding a situation in (classical, not $p$-adic) local Langlands for $\mathrm{GL}_p(\mathbb{Q}_p)$. An example of it is as follows: Let $F=\mathbb{Q}_2$ and $E$ be the ...

The Jacobi theta function $\theta(z) = 1 + 2 \sum_{n = 1}^\infty q^{n^2}$, with $q = e^{\pi i z}$ is a (twisted) modular form with weight $1/2$. It has an associated $L$-function $L(\theta, s) = \sum_{...
