§10.57 Uniform Asymptotic Expansions for Large Order

Asymptotic expansions for 𝗃n⁡((n+12)⁢z), 𝗒n⁡((n+12)⁢z), 𝗁n(1)⁡((n+12)⁢z), 𝗁n(2)⁡((n+12)⁢z), 𝗂n(1)⁡((n+12)⁢z), and 𝗄n⁡((n+12)⁢z) as n→∞ that are uniform with respect to z can be obtained from the results given in §§10.20 and 10.41 by use of the definitions (10.47.3)–(10.47.7) and (10.47.9). Subsequently, for 𝗂n(2)⁡((n+12)⁢z) the connection formula (10.47.11) is available.

For the corresponding expansion for 𝗃n′⁡((n+12)⁢z) use

10.57.1 𝗃n′⁡((n+12)⁢z)=π12((2⁢n+1)⁢z)12⁢Jn+12′⁡((n+12)⁢z)−π12((2⁢n+1)⁢z)32⁢Jn+12⁡((n+12)⁢z).

Similarly for the expansions of the derivatives of the other six functions.
