| <p> |
| The functions <a class="link" href="bessel.html" title="Bessel Functions of the First and Second Kinds">cyl_bessel_j</a> |
| and <a class="link" href="bessel.html" title="Bessel Functions of the First and Second Kinds">cyl_neumann</a> |
| return the result of the Bessel functions of the first and second kinds |
| respectively: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| cyl_bessel_j(v, x) = J<sub>v</sub>(x) |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| cyl_neumann(v, x) = Y<sub>v</sub>(x) = N<sub>v</sub>(x) |
| </p> |
| <p> |

| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel3.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The return type of these functions is computed using the <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/result_type.html" title="Calculation of the Type of the Result"><span class="emphasis"><em>result |
| type calculation rules</em></span></a> when T1 and T2 are different types. |
| The functions are also optimised for the relatively common case that T1 |
| is an integer. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The final <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">Policy</a> argument |
| is optional and can be used to control the behaviour of the function: |
| how it handles errors, what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the |
| <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">policy documentation for more details</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The functions return the result of <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/error_handling.html#domain_error">domain_error</a> |
| whenever the result is undefined or complex. For <a class="link" href="bessel.html" title="Bessel Functions of the First and Second Kinds">cyl_bessel_j</a> |
| this occurs when <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">x</span> <span class="special"><</span> |
| <span class="number">0</span></code> and v is not an integer, or when |
| <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">x</span> <span class="special">==</span> |
| <span class="number">0</span></code> and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">v</span> |
| <span class="special">!=</span> <span class="number">0</span></code>. |
| For <a class="link" href="bessel.html" title="Bessel Functions of the First and Second Kinds">cyl_neumann</a> |
| this occurs when <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">x</span> <span class="special"><=</span> |

| There are two sets of test values: spot values calculated using <a href="http://functions.wolfram.com" target="_top">functions.wolfram.com</a>, and a |
| much larger set of tests computed using a simplified version of this implementation |
| (with all the special case handling removed). |

| <a class="link" href="bessel.html#math_toolkit.special.bessel.bessel.accuracy">Accuracy</a> |
| </h5> |
| <p> |
| The following tables show how the accuracy of these functions varies on |
| various platforms, along with comparisons to the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/" target="_top">GSL-1.9</a> |
| and <a href="http://www.netlib.org/cephes/" target="_top">Cephes</a> libraries. |
| Note that the cyclic nature of these functions means that they have an |
| infinite number of irrational roots: in general these functions have arbitrarily |
| large <span class="emphasis"><em>relative</em></span> errors when the arguments are sufficiently |
| close to a root. Of course the absolute error in such cases is always small. |
| Note that only results for the widest floating-point type on the system |
| are given as narrower types have <a class="link" href="../../backgrounders/relative_error.html#zero_error">effectively |
| zero error</a>. All values are relative errors in units of epsilon. |

| Comparison to GSL and <a href="http://www.netlib.org/cephes/" target="_top">Cephes</a> |
| is interesting: both <a href="http://www.netlib.org/cephes/" target="_top">Cephes</a> |
| and this library optimise the integer order case - leading to identical |
| results - simply using the general case is for the most part slightly more |
| accurate though, as noted by the better accuracy of GSL in the integer |
| argument cases. This implementation tends to perform much better when the |
| arguments become large, <a href="http://www.netlib.org/cephes/" target="_top">Cephes</a> |
| in particular produces some remarkably inaccurate results with some of |
| the test data (no significant figures correct), and even GSL performs badly |
| with some inputs to J<sub>v</sub>. Note that by way of double-checking these results, |
| the worst performing <a href="http://www.netlib.org/cephes/" target="_top">Cephes</a> |
| and GSL cases were recomputed using <a href="http://functions.wolfram.com" target="_top">functions.wolfram.com</a>, |
| and the result checked against our test data: no errors in the test data |
| were found. |

| <a name="id1126433"></a> |
| <a class="link" href="bessel.html#math_toolkit.special.bessel.bessel.implementation">Implementation</a> |
| </h5> |
| <p> |
| The implementation is mostly about filtering off various special cases: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> is negative, then the order <span class="emphasis"><em>v</em></span> |
| must be an integer or the result is a domain error. If the order is an |
| integer then the function is odd for odd orders and even for even orders, |
| so we reflect to <span class="emphasis"><em>x > 0</em></span>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When the order <span class="emphasis"><em>v</em></span> is negative then the reflection formulae |
| can be used to move to <span class="emphasis"><em>v > 0</em></span>: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel9.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel10.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Note that if the order is an integer, then these formulae reduce to: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| J<sub>-n</sub> = (-1)<sup>n</sup>J<sub>n</sub> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Y<sub>-n</sub> = (-1)<sup>n</sup>Y<sub>n</sub> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| However, in general, a negative order implies that we will need to compute |
| both J and Y. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> is large compared to the order <span class="emphasis"><em>v</em></span> |
| then the asymptotic expansions for large <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> in M. Abramowitz |
| and I.A. Stegun, <span class="emphasis"><em>Handbook of Mathematical Functions</em></span> |
| 9.2.19 are used (these were found to be more reliable than those in A&S |
| 9.2.5). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When the order <span class="emphasis"><em>v</em></span> is an integer the method first relates |
| the result to J<sub>0</sub>, J<sub>1</sub>, Y<sub>0</sub> ​ and Y<sub>1</sub> ​ using either forwards or backwards recurrence |
| (Miller's algorithm) depending upon which is stable. The values for J<sub>0</sub>, |
| J<sub>1</sub>, Y<sub>0</sub> ​ and Y<sub>1</sub> ​ are calculated using the rational minimax approximations on |
| root-bracketing intervals for small <span class="emphasis"><em>|x|</em></span> and Hankel |
| asymptotic expansion for large <span class="emphasis"><em>|x|</em></span>. The coefficients |
| are from: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| W.J. Cody, <span class="emphasis"><em>ALGORITHM 715: SPECFUN - A Portable FORTRAN Package |
| of Special Function Routines and Test Drivers</em></span>, ACM Transactions |
| on Mathematical Software, vol 19, 22 (1993). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| and |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| J.F. Hart et al, <span class="emphasis"><em>Computer Approximations</em></span>, John Wiley |
| & Sons, New York, 1968. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| These approximations are accurate to around 19 decimal digits: therefore |
| these methods are not used when type T has more than 64 binary digits. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> is small, J<sub>x</sub> ​ is best computed directly from |
| the series: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel2.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| In the general case we compute J<sub>v</sub> ​ and Y<sub>v</sub> ​ simultaneously. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| To get the initial values, let μ ​ = ν - floor(ν + 1/2), then μ ​ is the fractional |
| part of ν ​ such that |μ| <= 1/2 (we need this for convergence later). The |
| idea is to calculate J<sub>μ</sub>(x), J<sub>μ+1</sub>(x), Y<sub>μ</sub>(x), Y<sub>μ+1</sub>(x) and use them to obtain |
| J<sub>ν</sub>(x), Y<sub>ν</sub>(x). |

| The algorithm is called Steed's method, which needs two continued fractions |
| as well as the Wronskian: |

| See: F.S. Acton, <span class="emphasis"><em>Numerical Methods that Work</em></span>, The |
| Mathematical Association of America, Washington, 1997. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The continued fractions are computed using the modified Lentz's method |
| (W.J. Lentz, <span class="emphasis"><em>Generating Bessel functions in Mie scattering calculations |
| using continued fractions</em></span>, Applied Optics, vol 15, 668 (1976)). |
| Their convergence rates depend on <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>, therefore we |
| need different strategies for large <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> and small <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="emphasis"><em>x > v</em></span>, CF1 needs O(<span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>) iterations |
| to converge, CF2 converges rapidly |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="emphasis"><em>x <= v</em></span>, CF1 converges rapidly, CF2 fails to converge |
| when <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> <code class="literal">-></code> 0 |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> is large (<span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> > 2), both |
| continued fractions converge (CF1 may be slow for really large <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>). |
| J<sub>μ</sub>, J<sub>μ+1</sub>, Y<sub>μ</sub>, Y<sub>μ+1</sub> can be calculated by |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel13.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| where |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel14.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| J<sub>ν</sub> and Y<sub>μ</sub> are then calculated using backward (Miller's algorithm) and forward |
| recurrence respectively. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> is small (<span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> <= 2), |
| CF2 convergence may fail (but CF1 works very well). The solution here is |
| Temme's series: |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel15.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| where |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| <span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/bessel16.png"></span> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| g<sub>k</sub> ​ and h<sub>k</sub> ​ |
| are also computed by recursions (involving gamma functions), but |
| the formulas are a little complicated, readers are refered to N.M. Temme, |
| <span class="emphasis"><em>On the numerical evaluation of the ordinary Bessel function of |
| the second kind</em></span>, Journal of Computational Physics, vol 21, 343 |
| (1976). Note Temme's series converge only for |μ| <= 1/2. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| As the previous case, Y<sub>ν</sub> ​ is calculated from the forward recurrence, so is |
| Y<sub>ν+1</sub>. With these two values and f<sub>ν</sub>, the Wronskian yields J<sub>ν</sub>(x) directly without |
| backward recurrence. |
