This content dictionary contains symbols to describe the Airy functions
and associated functions.
Ai
The symbol Ai defines the unary Airy Ai function; as in Abramovitz &
Stegun equation 10.4.1. This is a solution to the equation:
$$w^{\prime\prime}-x*w=0$$
It is linearly independent to the Airy Bi function represented by
the Bi symbol in this Content Dictionary and is specifically
given by:
$$Ai(x)=Ai(0)~f(z)-(-Ai^\prime (0))~g(z)$$
where:
$$f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty 3^k{\left (\frac{1}{3}\right )}_k
\frac{z^{3k}}{(3k)!}$$
and:
$$g(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty 3^k{\left (\frac{2}{3}\right )}_k
\frac{z^{3k+1}}{(3k+1)!}$$

Bi
The symbol Bi defines the unary Airy Bi function. This is defined in
Abramivitz and Stegun 10.4.1 and is a solution to the equation:
$$w^{\prime\prime}-x*w=0$$
It is linearly independant to the Airy Ai function represented by
the Ai symbol in this Content Dictionary and is specifically
given by:
$$Bi(x)=\sqrt{3}(Bi(0)~f(z)+(-Bi^\prime (0))~g(z))$$
where:
$$f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty 3^k{\left (\frac{1}{3}\right )}_k
\frac{z^{3k}}{(3k)!}$$
and:
$$g(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty 3^k{\left (\frac{2}{3}\right )}_k
\frac{z^{3k+1}}{(3k+1)!}$$

Ai2
The symbol Ai2 takes two arguments, it represents derivatives of
the Airy Ai function. The symbol Ai2(n,z) represents the n'th
derivative of Ai(z).
Bi2
The symbol Bi2 takes two arguments, it represents derivatives of
the Airy Bi function. The symbol Bi2(n,z) represents the n'th
derivative of Bi(z).
