Definition:Incomplete Elliptic Integral of the Second Kind/Definition 1

Special Function

 * $\displaystyle E \left({k, \phi}\right) = \int \limits_0^\phi \sqrt{1 - k^2 \sin^2 \phi} \, \mathrm d \phi$

is the incomplete elliptic integral of the second kind, and is a function of the variables:
 * $k$, defined on the interval $0 < k < 1$
 * $\phi$, defined on the interval $0 \le \phi \le \pi / 2$.
