When using various cryogenic devices in balloons, aeroplanes, and artificial earth satellites, in which gases from the cryostat are discharged into outer space, it is often necessary to maintain the working pressure in the cryostat at a given level, independent of the pressure of the surrounding med

✦ Synopsis
A recurrence relation is derived for expansion coefficients in a power series of the nome q exp[-rrK(k')/K(k)]= + ~, where K(k) is the complete elliptic integral of the first kind, k' = (1-k 2)'~2, and A = ~(1 -k '~2/(i + k~I~~2)• A simple numerical method based on the recurrence relation is developed for calculation of the coefficients a,,,. Analysis of errors arising from truncation of the power series for q suggests that numerical evaluation of q from this series is more useful than other known methods, except when k is very close to unity.
