Return Value
g01rt returns the value of the derivative of the Landau density function.
Description
g01rt evaluates an approximation to the derivative of the Landau density function given by
where is described in g01mt, using piecewise approximation by rational functions. Further details can be found in Kölbig and Schorr (1984).
To obtain the value of , g01mt
can be used.

Error Indicators and Warnings
There are no failure exits from this routine.
Accuracy
At least significant digits are usually correct, but occasionally only . Such accuracy is normally considered to be adequate for applications in experimental physics.
Because of the asymptotic behaviour of ,
which is of the order of ,
underflow may occur on some machines when is moderately large and negative.
Parallelism and Performance
None.
Further Comments
None.
