y1

Bessel function of second kind of order one.

SYNOPSIS:

double x, y, y1();
y = y1(x);

DESCRIPTION:

Returns a Bessel function of the second kind of order one of the argument.

The domain is divided into the intervals [0, 8] and (8, infinity). In the first interval a 25 term Chebyshev expansion is used, and a call to j1() is required. In the second, the asymptotic trigonometric representation is employed using two rational functions of degree 5/5.
