Airy and Painlev\'e asymptotics for the mKdV equation

We consider the higher order asymptotics for the mKdV equation in the Painlev\'e sector. We first show that the solution admits a uniform expansion to all orders in powers of $t^{-1/3}$ with coefficients that are smooth functions of $x(3t)^{-1/3}$. We then consider the special case when the reflection coefficient vanishes at the origin. In this case, the leading coefficient which satisfies the Painlev\'e II equation vanishes. We show that the leading asymptotics is instead described by the derivative of the Airy function. We are also able to express the subleading term explicitly in terms of the Airy function.
