scipy.special.ai_zeros

scipy.special.ai_zeros(nt)

Compute nt zeros and values of the Airy function Ai and its derivative.

Computes the first nt zeros, a, of the Airy function Ai(x); first nt zeros, ap, of the derivative of the Airy function Ai’(x); the corresponding values Ai(a’); and the corresponding values Ai’(a).

Parameters:

nt : int

Number of zeros to compute

Returns:

a : ndarray

First nt zeros of Ai(x)

ap : ndarray

First nt zeros of Ai’(x)

ai : ndarray

Values of Ai(x) evaluated at first nt zeros of Ai’(x)

aip : ndarray

Values of Ai’(x) evaluated at first nt zeros of Ai(x)
