The asymptotics of the Struve function {\bf H}_\nu(z) for large complex order and argument

Publication date: 17 October 2015

Abstract: We re-examine the asymptotic expansion of the Struve function

for large complex values of

u

and

z

satisfying

| a r g, u | l e q p i / 2

and

| a r g, z | < p i / 2

. Watson's analysis covers only the case of

u

and

z

of the same phase with

u / z

in the intervals

(0, 1)

and

(1, i n f t y)

. The domains in the complex

u / z

-plane where the expansion takes on different forms are obtained.
