For asymptotic approximations to M ( a , b , x ) and U ( a , b , x ) as a that hold uniformly with respect to x ( 0 , ) and bounded positive values of ( b 1 ) / | a | , combine (13.14.4), (13.14.5) with §§13.21(ii), 13.21(iii). …

    For applications to Bessel functions and Whittaker functions (Chapters 10 and 13), see Gargantini and Henrici (1967). … For special functions see §5.10 (gamma function), §7.9 (error function), §8.9 (incomplete gamma functions), §8.17(v) (incomplete beta function), §8.19(vii) (generalized exponential integral), §§10.10 and 10.33 (quotients of Bessel functions), §13.6 (quotients of confluent hypergeometric functions), §13.19 (quotients of Whittaker functions), and §15.7 (quotients of hypergeometric functions). … This forward algorithm achieves efficiency and stability in the computation of the convergents C n = A n / B n , and is related to the forward series recurrence algorithm. …

    §33.23(iv) Recurrence Relations
    In a similar manner to §33.23(iii) the recurrence relations of §§33.4 or 33.17 can be used for a range of values of the integer , provided that the recurrence is carried out in a stable direction (§3.6). … Noble (2004) obtains double-precision accuracy for W η , μ ( 2 ρ ) for a wide range of parameters using a combination of recurrence techniques, power-series expansions, and numerical quadrature; compare (33.2.7). …
    38: 33.22 Particle Scattering and Atomic and Molecular Spectra
    Positive-energy functions correspond to processes such as Rutherford scattering and Coulomb excitation of nuclei (Alder et al.

(1985). … For scattering problems, the interior solution is then matched to a linear combination of a pair of Coulomb functions, F ( η , ρ ) and G ( η , ρ ) , or f ( ϵ , ; r ) and h ( ϵ , ; r ) , to determine the scattering S -matrix and also the correct normalization of the interior wave solutions; see Bloch et al. (1951). For bound-state problems only the exponentially decaying solution is required, usually taken to be the Whittaker function W η , + 1 2 ( 2 ρ ) . … The Coulomb functions given in this chapter are most commonly evaluated for real values of ρ , r , η , ϵ and nonnegative integer values of , but they may be continued analytically to complex arguments and order as indicated in §33.13. …
