§7.24(i) Approximations in Terms of Elementary Functions
  • Cody (1969) provides minimax rational approximations for erf x and erfc x . The maximum relative precision is about 20S.

  • Cody (1968) gives minimax rational approximations for the Fresnel integrals (maximum relative precision 19S); for a Fortran algorithm and comments see Snyder (1993).

  • Shepherd and Laframboise (1981) gives coefficients of Chebyshev series for ( 1 + 2 x ) e x 2 erfc x on ( 0 , ) (22D).

  • Luke (1969b, vol. 2, pp. 422–435) gives main diagonal Padé approximations for F ( z ) , erf z , erfc z , C ( z ) , and S ( z ) ; approximate errors are given for a selection of z -values.

    §7.21 Physical Applications
    The error functions, Fresnel integrals, and related functions occur in a variety of physical applications. Fresnel integrals and Cornu’s spiral occurred originally in the analysis of the diffraction of light; see Born and Wolf (1999, §8.7). … Carslaw and Jaeger (1959) gives many applications and points out the importance of the repeated integrals of the complementary error function i n erfc ( z ) . … Dawson’s integral appears in de-convolving even more complex motional effects; see Pratt (2007). …
