Large-argument asymptotic expansion of a modified Bessel function

ID: large-argument-asymptotic-expansion-of-a-modified-bessel-function

For fixed real as , the Modified Bessel function of the first kind and Modified Bessel function of the second kind have asymptotic expansions
The expansion and its error bounds establish actual growing and decaying solutions, beyond formal matching of a differential equation. These formulas are documented in NIST DLMF, equations 10.40.1–2.
