If z is a complex number with a positive real part, the gamma function, T(z), is defined as
![]()
Integration by parts gives an important functional relation of the Gamma function
![]()
If z is a positive integer, n, then
![]()
That is, the Gamma function is a generalization of the factorial function to real and complex numbers.
It would be useful to evaluate the Gamma function for z = 3/2, since the Fermi integral can be approximated ...
