For large $\rho$, with $\mathrm{\ell }$ and $\eta$ fixed,

33.11.1		$$H_{\mathrm{\ell }}^{\pm }(\eta ,\rho )\sim {\mathrm{e}}^{\pm \mathrm{i}{\theta }_{\mathrm{\ell }}(\eta ,\rho )}\sum _{k=0}^{\mathrm{\infty }}\frac{{\left(a\right)}_k{\left(b\right)}_k}{k!{(\pm 2\mathrm{i}\rho )}^k},$$

Since this formula expresses an asymptotic expansion, it has been corrected by using instead an $\sim$ relation. Reported 2019-01-29 by Gergő Nemes Errata (effective with 1.0.19): Originally the factor in the denominator on the right-hand side was written incorrectly as ${(\mp 2\mathrm{i}\rho )}^k$. This has been corrected to ${(\pm 2\mathrm{i}\rho )}^k$. Reported 2018-05-15 by Ian Thompson See also: Annotations for §33.11 and Ch.33
