g01et returns the value of the Landau distribution function $\Phi \left(\lambda \right)$.

g01et evaluates an approximation to the Landau distribution function $\Phi \left(\lambda \right)$ given by where $\varphi \left(\lambda \right)$ is described in g01mt, using piecewise approximation by rational functions. Further details can be found in Kölbig and Schorr (1984).

There are no failure exits from this routine.

At least $7$ significant digits are usually correct, but occasionally only $6$. Such accuracy is normally considered to be adequate for applications in experimental physics.

Because of the asymptotic behaviour of $\Phi \left(\lambda \right)$, which is of the order of $\exp \left[-\exp \left(-\lambda \right)\right]$, underflow may occur on some machines when $\lambda$ is moderately large and negative.

None.

None.

This example evaluates $\Phi \left(\lambda \right)$ at $\lambda =0.5$, and prints the results.
