+@cindex Dawson function
+
+The Dawson integral is defined by @math{\exp(-x^2) \int_0^x dt
+\exp(t^2)}. A table of Dawson's integral can be found in Abramowitz &
+Stegun, Table 7.5. The Dawson functions are declared in the header file
+@file{gsl_sf_dawson.h}.
+
+@deftypefun double gsl_sf_dawson (double @var{x})
+@deftypefunx int gsl_sf_dawson_e (double @var{x}, gsl_sf_result * @var{result})
+These routines compute the value of Dawson's integral for @var{x}.
