An asymptotic expansion for the Stieltjes constants

Abstract: The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_n$ appear in the coefficients in the Laurent expansion of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ about the simple pole $s=1$. We present an asymptotic expansion for $\gamma_n$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$ based on the approach described by Knessel and Coffey [Math. Comput. {\bf 80} (2011) 379--386]. A truncated form of this expansion with explicit coefficients is also given. Numerical results are presented that illustrate the accuracy achievable with our expansion.
