A Series Expansion of Conway's Generalised Solid-Angle Formulas

A series expansion is presented of Conway's solid-angle formula for two parallel, non-coaxial disks. Similar equations for non-axial, parallel ring and point sources are verified, as well as a quickly converging integral representation for the solid angle of two coaxial disks. Their performance is tested by comparison with results from a numerical integration method.
