✦ Synopsis
a b s t r a c t Let γ = 0.577215 . . . be the Euler-Mascheroni constant, and let R n = n k=1 1 2 . This refines the result of D. W. DeTemple, who proved that the double inequality holds with a = 1 and b = 0.

We generalize Sondow's (ir)rationality criteria for Euler's constant and give necessary and sufficient conditions for irrationality of generalized Euler's constant g a ; as well as obtain new asymptotic formulas for computing g a : The proof is based on constructing linear forms in 1; g a and logari
