Gordon Function

Another name for the confluent hypergeometric function of the second kind, defined by

$G(a|c|z)=e^(ipia)(Gamma(c))/(Gamma(a)){(Gamma(1-c))/(Gamma(1-a))[e^(-pic)+(sin[pi(a-c)])/(sin(pia))]×_1F_1(a;c;z)-2(Gamma(c-1))/(Gamma(c-a))z^(1-c)_1F_1(a-c+1;2-c;z)},$

where is the gamma function and is the confluent hypergeometric function of the first kind.
