jv
Bessel function of non-integer order.SYNOPSIS:
double v, x, y, jv();
y = jv(v, x);
DESCRIPTION:
Returns a Bessel function of order v of the argument, where v is real. Negative x is allowed if v is an integer.
Several expansions are included: the ascending power series, the Hankel expansion, and two transitional expansions for large v. If v is not too large, it is reduced by recurrence to a region of best accuracy. The transitional expansions give 12D accuracy for v > 500.
ACCURACY:
Results for integer v are indicated by *, where x and v both vary from -125 to +125. Otherwise, x ranges from 0 to 125, v ranges as indicated by "domain." Error criterion is absolute, except relative when |jv()| > 1.
