►The frequent appearances of the Airy functions in both classical and quantum physics is associated with wave equations with turning points, for which asymptotic (WKBJ) solutions are exponential on one side and oscillatory on the other.
The Airy functions constitute uniform approximations whose region of validity includes the turning point and its neighborhood.
