Abstract:
Rational Chebyshev approimations have been computed for the Fresnel integrals $C(x)$ and $S(x)$ for arguments in the intervals $[0.,1.2]$ and $[1.2,1.6]$, and for the related functions $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ for the intervals $[1.6,1.9]$, $[1.9,2.4]$ and $[2.4,\infty ]$. Maximal relative errors range down to $2 \times {10^{ - 19}}$.References
