 Cubic Laplace transition integral

The integral $I(x)={\int }_0^{\infty }{e}^{xt-t^3/3}dt$ is a rescaled Scorer Hi function. It has the three useful limitsFor the negative-argument limit, scale $t=s/M$ and use the dominated convergence theorem. At zero, substitute $s=t^3/3$ and use the Gamma integral. For the positive-argument limit, the exponent has its maximum at $t=\sqrt{M}$, with second derivative $-2\sqrt{M}$; Laplace's method gives the displayed factor. These estimates describe a cubic endpoint-to-saddle transition.
