1: 7.21 Physical Applications
Ng and Geller (1969) cites work with applications from atomic physics and astrophysics. Efficient algorithms for computing the Faddeeva (or Faddeyeva) function are discussed in Wells (1999), a paper frequently cited in the astrophysics literature. … These applications include astrophysics, plasma diagnostics, neutron diffraction, laser spectroscopy, and surface scattering. …

5: 19.35 Other Applications
Elliptic integrals appear in lattice models of critical phenomena (Guttmann and Prellberg (1993)); theories of layered materials (Parkinson (1969)); fluid dynamics (Kida (1981)); string theory (Arutyunov and Staudacher (2004)); astrophysics (Dexter and Agol (2009)). …
6: 31.17 Physical Applications
Heun functions appear in the theory of black holes (Kerr (1963), Teukolsky (1972), Chandrasekhar (1984), Suzuki et al. (1998), Kalnins et al. (2000)), lattice systems in statistical mechanics (Joyce (1973, 1994)), dislocation theory (Lay and Slavyanov (1999)), and solution of the Schrödinger equation of quantum mechanics (Bay et al. (1997), Tolstikhin and Matsuzawa (2001), and Hall et al. (2010)). For applications of Heun’s equation and functions in astrophysics see Debosscher (1998) where different spectral problems for Heun’s equation are also considered. More applications—including those of generalized spheroidal wave functions and confluent Heun functions in mathematical physics, astrophysics, and the two-center problem in molecular quantum mechanics—can be found in Leaver (1986) and Slavyanov and Lay (2000, Chapter 4). …
7: 30.12 Generalized and Coulomb Spheroidal Functions
Equation (30.12.1) appears in astrophysics and molecular physics. …
