FORMULA
Equals 1/(2*A133841), since F'(x)=1-2*x*F(x). - Stanislav Sykora, Sep 17 2014
EXAMPLE
0.54104422463518169847...
MATHEMATICA
DawsonF[x_] := Sqrt[Pi]*Erfi[x]/(2*Exp[x^2]); y0 = DawsonF[x] /. FindRoot[ DawsonF'[x], {x, 1}, WorkingPrecision -> 110]; RealDigits[y0][[1]][[1 ;; 105]] (* Jean-François Alcover, Oct 26 2012, after Eric W. Weisstein *)
PROG
(PARI) Erfi(z) = -I*(1.0-erfc(I*z));
Dawson(z) = 0.5*sqrt(Pi)*exp(-z*z)*Erfi(z); \\ same as F(x)=D_+(x)
DDawson(z) = 1.0 - 2*z*Dawson(z); \\ Derivative of the above
x = 0.5/solve(z=0.1, 2.0, real(DDawson(z))) \\ Stanislav Sykora, Sep 17 2014
