Accurate analytic approximation for the Chapman grazing incidence function

Abstract A new analytical approximation for the Chapman mapping integral, $${\text {Ch}}$$ Ch , for exponential atmospheres is proposed. This formulation is based on the derived relation of the Chapman function to several classes of the incomplete Bessel functions. Application of the uniform asympto...
