The aim of this paper is to provide the best compromise between accuracy and CPU-time for calculating the generalized Fermi-Dirac integrals. After a brief review of the existing methods, with emphasis on two of them, we present our method valid for all values of the degeneracy parameter and of the t

✦ Synopsis
Generalized Fermi-Dirac integrals are evaluated. These inversity of Belfast, N. Ireland (see application form in this issue) tegrals arise in applications of statistical mechanics to Fermi systems. Computers: Cray-i, X-MP; Installation: Los Alamos National Laboratory Method of solution Chebyschev polynomial representations are provided. Programming language used: Fortran 77 Restriction High speed storage required: 3084 words The argument a can be any positive or negative real number. The indices ~s and v are restricted to certain half-integral No. of bits in a word: 64 values, as discussed in the text. Peripheralrequired: output device for error messages Typical running times Average computation time is approximately 20 s s per evalua-No. of lines in combined program and test deck: 2119 tion on a Cray-i.
