Abstract
A numerical scheme is developed for the evaluation of Abramowitz functions in the right half of the complex plane. For , the scheme utilizes series expansions for and asymptotic expansions for with determined by the required precision, and modified Laurent series expansions which are precomputed via a least squares procedure to approximate accurately and efficiently on each sub-region in the intermediate region . For , is evaluated via a recurrence relation. The scheme achieves nearly machine precision for , with the cost about four times of evaluating a complex exponential per function evaluation.
