Abstract :
An approximation for the electron emission integral that is more accurate than previously published approximations is presented. The error in the new approximation is contained within 4.5% over the physical range of interest. The approximation can be easily implemented in computer-aided design and analysis as well as hand calculations using pocket calculators
