Computation of real fractional order Bessel functions of the second kind

Journal Article · · ACM Trans. Math. Software; (United States)
A new method is presented for the computation of sequences of real, fractional-order Bessel functions of the second kind. For x not too small the method involves evaluation of near-minimax approximations to Y/sub nu/(x) for fixed x and small variable ..nu.., followed by analytic continuation in x and then by recursion in ..nu... Direct expansions of Y/sub nu/(x) are used for x small and 0 < or = to nu < or = to 1. Finally, implementations of the method for the FUNPACK package are discussed.
