standard normal
In statistics, a normal distribution or Gaussian distribution is a type of continuous probability distribution for a real-valued random variable. The general form of its probability density function is

cumulative distribution function
In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a real-valued random variable X, or just distribution function of X, evaluated at x, is the probability that X will take a value less than or equal to x.

error function
In mathematics, the error function (also called the Gauss error function), often denoted by , is a complex function of a complex variable defined as:

Owen's T function In mathematics, Owen's T function ''T''(''h'', ''a''), named after statistician Donald Bruce Owen, is defined by
:
T(h,a)=\frac\int_^ \frac dx \quad \left(-\infty < h, a < +\infty\right).
The function was first introduced by Owen in ...

In these integrals, ''n''!! is the double factorial
In mathematics, the double factorial or semifactorial of a number , denoted by , is the product of all the integers from 1 up to that have the same parity (odd or even) as . That is,
:n!! = \prod_^ (n-2k) = n (n-2) (n-4) \cdots.
For even , the ...
: for even ''n'' it is equal to the product of all even numbers from 2 to ''n'', and for odd ''n'' it is the product of all odd numbers from 1 to ''n'' ; additionally it is assumed that .
