§6.10(i) Inverse Factorial Series

6.10.1 E1(z)=ez(c0z+c1z(z+1)+2!c2z(z+1)(z+2)+3!c3z(z+1)(z+2)(z+3)+),
z>0,

where

6.10.2 c0 =1,
c1 =1,
c2 =12,
c3 =13,
c4 =16,

and

6.10.3 ck=j=0k1cjkj,
k1.

For a more general result (incomplete gamma function), and also for a result for the logarithmic integral, see Nielsen (1906a, p. 283: Formula (3) is incorrect).

§6.10(ii) Expansions in Series of Spherical Bessel Functions

For the notation see §10.47(ii).

6.10.4 Si(z) =zn=0(𝗃n(12z))2,
6.10.5 Cin(z) =n=1an(𝗃n(12z))2,
6.10.6 Ei(x)=γ+ln|x|+n=0(1)n(xan)(𝗂n(1)(12x))2,
x0,

where

6.10.7 an=(2n+1)(1(1)n+ψ(n+1)ψ(1)),

and ψ denotes the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function (§5.2(i)).

6.10.8 Ein(z)=zez/2(𝗂0(1)(12z)+n=12n+1n(n+1)𝗂n(1)(12z)).

For (6.10.4)–(6.10.8) and further results see Harris (2000) and Luke (1969b, pp. 56–57). An expansion for E1(z) can be obtained by combining (6.2.4) and (6.10.8).
